The film fraternity is notorious for its share if fair-weather friends. And Manisha Koirala is learning it the hard way. The actress, who is preparing to return to India in July, post her treatment for cancer, poured her heart out on a social networking site on Saturday, on how lonely the journey has been.
Even though Manisha has received ample support from her family friend Subrata Roy Sahara, who ensured she received the best of medical treatment in New York, the actress seemed anguished over the no-show from her peers.
"How slowly, shadows of my past friendships are becoming distant dream... did I have bunch of friends with whom there were promises of life time? Disappointed, yes I m...but then life fills you with new hope, new friends...hoping this time round it would be rooted in deep values rather then just crazy, fun times!!" wrote the depressed actress wrote.
When TOI got in touch with Manisha's manager Subrata Ghosh, he couldn't recall any Bollywood stars visiting her or even enquiring about her wellbeing while she was going through chemotherapies in New York. Except, Deepti Naval.
Manisha had worked in Deepti's directorial debut Do Paise Ki Dhoop, Chaar Aane Ki Baarish. Although the film was never commercially released, the two bonded. And it was Deepti, who has been Manisha's constant companion during these difficult times. "Deeptiji has been visiting her regularly in New York. She spends a lot of time with her. Apart from that I can only recall hearing about Rituparna Sengupta (Bengali actress)," said Subrata.
When we got in touch with Gulshan Grover, Manisha's neighbour in Mumbai, he admitted that Manisha, who loved to be surrounded by friends, is upset that her friends have turned their backs on her. "For some reason, several of her close friends have stopped asking about her or checking on her. Maybe they don't want to bother her. But I am sure everyone is praying for her speedy recovery," said Gulshan.
According to the actor, what exacerbated the crisis was Manisha's decision to switch off her smart phone after landing in New York.
Jackie Shroff, who has been friends with Manisha for a long time, admitted that it has been over a month since he last called her. "I haven't been in touch with her lately. I spoke to her about a month back. I know that a lot of people who used to call themselves her friends have not even bothered to find out how she is. She needs her friends now the most," said the actor who is shooting in Kolkata.
It remains to be seen if the missing friends rally around her once she returns to the city this summer.
