With the second wave of COVID-19 impacts India in a devastating manner, Disha Patani encourages people to stay safe and help each other as much as possible.
“It has been a tough time for everyone, more so for those who have been struggling with basic necessities. It’s painful to see so much suffering all around, but what we can do to make it less difficult is take precautions, mask up, get vaccinated and extend help to all those in need,” says the actor.
Furthermore, she adds, “We all are in this together and I pray for everyone’s safety and well being. I hope we, and our country comes out of this crisis as soon as possible.”
As Mumbai, the heart of Bollywood brews under a strict lockdown, Disha prefers to look at the brighter side of things. Her upcoming film, Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai is set to release this Eid. This is Disha’s second movie with Salman Khan and it will be released both theatrically and on OTT platforms.
“The multi-platform release was our best option given the existing situation at hand. Theatre owners had appealed to Salman (Khan) sir to get them out of this slump by releasing Radhe in theatres. So, along with releasing in parts where theatres aren’t shut, the audiences can watch the film at the comfort of their home too,” says the actor, adding, “I feel glad that we’re able to entertain the audience in such tough times”.
Speaking fondly of her co-star Salman Khan, she says, “He’s a great human being and always makes everyone comfortable. He’s so inspiring and I’m very grateful that I got the opportunity to work with such a superstar of the country once again.”

On the success of her song Seeti Maar from the movie, Patani is giddy with happiness. “It was pretty difficult prepping for the song because it was the first time I was working with Prabhudeva sir (also the director of Radhe). But he was very patient with me. It was a different choreography but it was so much fun,” the actor said.
“My character in a film matters the most but if I get a good song in the film, then it does make me very happy because I love dancing.”
Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai is releasing pan-India on May 13, 2021.
