Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives: Aamir Khan ‘was amazing to work with’ in Afsana Pyar Ka, says Neelam Kothari; recalls his 'very particular' side

As a long-time admirer and follower of Bollywood, I must say that Neelam Kothari’s journey through the glitzy world of Indian cinema has always been fascinating to me. Her reminiscences about working with Aamir Khan and Rajesh Khanna in the 90s offer a unique perspective into the life and times of Bollywood’s golden era.


Neelam Kothari, a widely recognized actress from Bollywood, entered the world of entertainment at the age of 16. From the 80s to the early 2000s, she captivated audiences. Recently, she’s been back in the spotlight through the reality TV series Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. In a recent interview, she reminisced about acting alongside Aamir Khan in the 1991 romantic drama film Afsana Pyar Ka. During this time, she mentioned that Aamir Khan, often referred to as Mr Perfectionist, was extremely meticulous when it came to his scenes and performances.

Neelam Kothari, famously known for Hum Saath-Saath Hain, recently shared a nostalgic conversation on Radio Nasha about working with Aamir Khan during the 90s. She praised him as an exceptional co-star, mentioning that he was meticulous about his scenes and performances, often requesting extra takes because of this attention to detail. She also highlighted the charm of simplicity in their past collaborations and fondly remembered completing the lively song “Tip Tip” with Khan within just three days.

During the same interview, she also divulged her work experience alongside the legendary Rajesh Khanna in the 1989 drama, “Ghar Ka Chiraag.” Neelam recounted that Khanna was rather subdued and private on set. She explained, “For me, ‘Ghar Ka Chirag’ was a mature role, and he was incredibly helpful because a actor’s natural response shines brilliantly when working with an iconic actor like him.

Following her appearances alongside Maheep Kapoor, Bhavna Pandey, and Seema Kiran Sajdeh on two seasons of a TV show, she also received an opportunity to portray a smaller role in Masaba Gupta and Neena Gupta’s Netflix series “Masaba Masaba.” Shortly after, she made an appearance in one of the episodes of “Made in Heaven.

In a recent development, the third season of the show previously known as Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives has been released, now titled Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives. Joining the four well-known Bollywood wives are Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Ranbir Kapoor’s sister, art collector Shalini Passi, and Kalyani Saha Chawla, a close friend and entrepreneur who is associated with several Bollywood stars.
