Manisha Koirala reveals last-minute change to Shah Rukh Khan's fate in Dil Se

Manisha Koirala recently revealed that the ending of the 1998 film "Dil Se" was changed at the last minute. Originally, Shah Rukh Khan's character was not supposed to die, which Koirala preferred for its portrayal of unrequited love. In an interview, Koirala discussed her role as Meghna, a female terrorist, and how director Mani Ratnam influenced her performance. The original script emphasized a larger cause over love, but the final version featured a dramatic ending where both characters perish together. Koirala expressed that the original ending better highlighted the impossibility of their union. She felt the final cut shifted the focus to a sacrifice driven by love, which she found less compelling than the original concept.
