Anushka Sharma and Priyanka Chopra ‘argued’ on Dil Dhadakne Do set, reveals Darshan Kumaar: ‘Anushka thought I was rude’
In a recent interview, Darshan Kumaar revealed that Anushka Sharma and Priyanka Chopra once had an argument about him, as they held differing opinions on his nature.

Actor Anushka Sharma had a violent confrontation scene with antagonist Satbir, played by Darshan Kumaar, in the film NH10 (2015). Alongside NH10, Darshan was also shooting for the sports drama Mary Kom opposite Priyanka Chopra, in which he portrayed her supportive husband. In a recent interview with Bollywood Bubble, the actor revealed that Anushka and Priyanka once had an argument about him, as they held differing opinions on his nature.
When asked if he was afraid of performing the violent scene with Anushka, considering she was the producer of the film, he replied, “The opposite happened with me. I remember that I had to drag her from the room till outside, holding her hair tightly, and throw her there. I pulled her through a technique, I knew how to do action scenes, I didn’t hold her hair tightly, but just showed that energy in my hand. She is such a hardworking and amazing actor that she told me, ‘Ache se pakad aur ache se kheench (Hold tightly and pull me properly).'”
The actor added, “She asked to pull her hair for real, she wanted to feel that force to bring it out in her expressions. The second time, I held her with a tight grip, she even felt pain, but that scene came out beautifully.”
Darshan Kumaar juggled two starkly different roles at the same time, the menacing antagonist Satbir in NH10, and the gentle, soft-hearted Onler Kom in Mary Kom. “It was very tough. But as an actor, that’s the thrill. I didn’t have an option initially, but then I also didn’t want to move schedules. I am not that big of a star that dates would be changed for me,” he shared.
Moreover, both female leads Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma had to leave next for the shoot of their film Dil Dhadakne Do. “Anushka and Priyanka met at their film’s shoot and spoke about me. Priyanka said that Dashan is sweet, hardworking and a good actor. Anushka said, ‘Kahan? (Where).’ I haven’t seen a more rude person than him. They argued over me. With both of them, I was in my character at that time. I was Satbir at that time, I never greeted Anushka. I introduced myself to her after the climax.”
He continued, “It was a part of my process. She had no idea. She thought I have an attitude, maybe she thought that. She told someone jokingly, ‘Climax mein ise ache se rod maarungi.’ I met her later during the film’s promotion in Delhi. Her mind was changed and she thought I am very sweet. I told her that I was in my character at that time.”
