Sushmita Sen reveals how her expression ‘Haye Mera Bachcha’ was used for Salman Khan in Biwi No 1: ‘Mujhe laga cut hogaya’

“It’s funny.. haye mera bachcha is not from the film. Mujhe laga cut hogaya hai scene (I thought we were done with the scene) and I just held Salman and pulled him to say ‘haye mera bachcha’. And the camera was still rolling and David kept it. So it’s actually my own lingo,” Sushmita Sen shared with a broad smile.

Earlier, Sushmita Sen spoke about her decision to take a step back from films and how it coincided well with her responsibilities as a single mother. The actor also mentioned that she felt underutilised on film sets, making her feel that she was wasting her time.

“As a woman, and I speak for myself at least, there’s a lot of mother guilt, parent guilt. I am on a set, and I am waiting endlessly for XYZ to arrive. But I am not really working. Then I have a 9-6 shift, which is dragging to another 9 with no fault of mine. In that situation, I was neither being a professional nor a mother. I was just wasting my time, and I didn’t want that. So I decided.. and it happened at the same time as Alisah was a baby. No Problem was my last film. At that point, I was not really enjoying anything, not learning, I wasn’t motivated to go to work,” the 47-year-old shared. Sushmita added that in her second inning, she is the first one to be on the set as there’s a ‘childlike excitement’: “It took a while but it’s back.”
