This actor was once India’s most expensive model, challenged Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, failed in acting, his name is…, he is now…
The glittering fame in Bollywood is as attractive from the outside as it is full of uncertainty from the inside. The changing faces of the stars are proof of the fact that nothing is permanent. In this sequence of changes, many diamonds were sold for a pittance, and many were more expensive than diamonds.
Today, we will tell you the story of one such diamond of the modeling world who was once considered India’s most expensive model. Not only this, this model used to compete with Salman, Shah Rukh and Saif Ali Khan. But for this model, who was a failure in acting, the wheel of time turned in such a way that all the fame became a thing of the past. We are talking about Deepak Malhotra, who has been a superstar model since the 90s.
When the film ‘Lamhe’ was released in 1991, people started recognising its lead actor. When they came to know, they found out that he was Deepak Malhotra, the star of the modeling world. Deepak Malhotra, who did his first film with Sridevi, was considered the most expensive model in the country at that time.
Before films in 1991, Deepak ruled the modeling world throughout the 80s. If media reports are to be believed, Deepak was the first model who do the branding of ‘Vimal’. In 1987, Deepak was counted among the most expensive models of the country and used to charge Rs 1.50 lakh for every advertisement. After earning a name in the modeling world, Deepak was launched by Yash Chopra in his film ‘Lamhe’ with 90s superstar Sridevi.
Media reports even claim that Deepak was cast in the film ‘Chamatkar’ before Shah Rukh Khan. But after seeing Deepak’s acting, the makers changed their decision. Deepak’s name also came up in place of Salman Khan in Suryavanshi. Deepak was also cast in Saif Ali Khan’s film ‘Bekhudi’.
But when the makers saw Deepak’s acting in Lamhe, they changed their decision. Deepak lost his fame due to his failure in acting. After this, Deepak got married and settled in America. Now Deepak lives in America with his family.
