Ameesha Patel has been in the industry for quite some time and the Gadar actress has often raked up controversies.
In the year 2004, Ameesha made headlines when she sent a legal notice to her father for mismanaging her accounts and assets amounting to Rs 120 million and demanding the money back.
Ameesha's gesture had shocked the industry and her fans, her brother Ashmit Patel had gained popularity back then with his debut film Murder that was a hit, he too had expressed his disappointment on Ameesha's shameful act.
In an old interview, when Ashmit was asked about his relationship with Ameesha, he said, "There's no sibling rivalry involved in my stand. Yes, it's true that I have hardly spoken to Amisha since she's mostly away shooting abroad.
And the little that we talk has nothing to do with any professional rivalry. As I understand, she was in Mumbai early this morning before she went back abroad, but I'm not too sure about this. This is a family matter and we will sort it out once she's back."
Speaking about the parents, Ashmit had said, "I'm minding my own business as I do not want to get dragged into all this till I'm asked to. But there is no question about which side of the fence I am standing on.
When Ameesha was asked by Hindustan Times about her parents, she had said, "Why should I feel ashamed? My money belongs to no one but me and not even my parents have the right to take it away. In fact, my grandmother is supporting me. My parents have fooled her too."
