Bollywood actress Ameesha Patel was expected to attend the National International Business Beauty Awards 2026 in Kolhapur recently, but could not make it to the event. The actress took to her social media to inform the fans and also reveal the reason why she would be unable to attend the event. The actress expressed her dissatisfaction with the client who allegedly failed to meet her requirements.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Ameesha wrote, "Hi lovely fans in KOHLAPUR! Was supposed to attend the National international business beauty Awards 2026 tomorw!"(sic) She further explained the reason, adding, "The client hasn't fulfilled all the necessary commitments and therefore as a result to his failure I will be unable to attend!"(sic)
Notably, Ameesha did not reveal in her social media post what kind of commitments were not fulfilled by the client. One fan joked that it could be about the money, saying, "Yes, they didn't pay the remaining 123 rupees."
Interestingly, Ameesha was recently in Kolkata. She shared glimpses from her breakfast in the city, and wrote, "KOLKATTA - a quick breakfast in my room before jetting off - less than 20 hours in the city." The actress was also attending an Eid party in Kolkata. Before that, she was seen in Ahmedabad and Mumbai attending other events.
Others seemed to be more critical. One user even called her statement and decision an act of "arrogance."
Bollywood actress Ameesha became an overnight star with her debut opposite Hrithik Roshan in the 2000 blockbuster Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai. Later, she starred in movies like Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, which went on to become one of the biggest hits in Hindi cinema.
Ameesha is well-known for her work in Bollywood in the early 2000s. She has acted in several Hindi and regional films over the years. Her other notable works include Humraaz, Aap Mujhe Achche Lagne Lage, Yeh Hai Jalwa, Kya Yehi Pyaar Hai, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, and Race 2. In addition to her illustrious acting career, the 50-year-old is also a humanitarian and works for a number of causes.
