Long-Term Partnership

The Bipasha Basu & Paresh Rawal partnership

After 9 years apart, they came back together for Chor Machaaye Shor (2002). They saved their best for last — Phir Hera Pheri (7.1/10) came 13 years in. Their work runs across 3 decades of Hindi cinema.

They didn't share a set between 1993 and 2002. From Aankhen (1993) to Aakrosh (2010) (2010).

The shape of the work

The 2000s account for 67% of everything they made together. The 1990s belonged to Aankhen; the 2010s to Aakrosh (2010). Bipasha Basu acted in every film; Paresh Rawal acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

  • Bipasha was just 14 when she shot her first scene with Paresh in Aankhen (1993). She played a young version of his character's love interest. They wouldn't share screen time again for 12 years.
  • In Phir Hera Pheri (2006), Paresh's deadpan delivery made Bipasha break character mid-scene. Director Neeraj Vora kept the takes where she laughed because it fit her character's playful annoyance with his.
  • During Jaane Hoga Kya (2005), Paresh would bring homemade thepla for Bipasha every day. She later said it was the only thing that got her through that chaotic shoot.
  • "Paresh ji is the only co-star who can make me forget my lines just by looking at me a certain way. He doesn't even need to speak." — Bipasha Basu, in a 2006 Filmfare interview about Phir Hera Pheri.
  • Their only dramatic pairing — Aakrosh (2010) — was the first Hindi film where Bipasha played a tribal woman. Paresh specifically asked director Priyadarshan to cast her, saying she'd bring 'raw hunger' to the role.
