In a surprising twist, Bollywood actress Amisha Patel—long believed to be single—has revealed that her heart has never really been available. In a recent interview, she confessed, “Tom Cruise is my dream man. I consider him my husband in heart and mind.”
The internet, predictably, lit up. Fans were both amused and charmed by her honest confession.

From instant stardom to a rollercoaster career

Amisha’s debut in the 2000s Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai with Hrithik Roshan was the stuff of dreams — a blockbuster hit that made her an overnight sensation. She followed it up with massive successes like Gadar: Ek Prem Katha (2001) and Badri in Telugu.

But the dream didn’t last forever. Between 2002 and 2010, Amisha faced a series of box-office failures, appearing in over 20 flop films. Though she did small roles in successful films like Bhool Bhulaiyaa and Race 2, the stardom of her early days remained unmatched.

What went wrong with her family?

In 2004, Amisha made headlines for filing a legal case against her father, accusing him of misusing ₹12 crore from her accounts.
“Why should I feel ashamed? That money was mine,” she said, standing her ground. She also revealed that her parents had allegedly betrayed her grandmother, the one family member who stood by her during the legal dispute.

How did she make a comeback?

Just when the industry seemed to move on, Gadar 2 came in 2023 like a cinematic time machine. Reuniting with Sunny Deol, Amisha’s performance was widely praised, and the film turned out to be her biggest hit to date, restoring her star status.

From publicly battling her own family to loving a Hollywood superstar from afar, Amisha Patel’s journey is nothing short of dramatic, and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
