"Pooja Bhatt had a temperament which was very difficult and disrespectful towards actors. Mahesh Bhatt used to like me a lot. But Pooja said a lot of things about me. I don't want to go into the details of it. I was very respectful towards her, but she had a very abusive nature. She was extremely abusive," he said

Muzammil Ibrahim disclosed that he turned down Mahesh Bhatt's Raaz following his experience with Pooja Bhatt on Dhoka. The model turned actor went on to mention that he went through depression. "I was so scared, I was nightmarish. I was a supermodel in India, respected in a very different way and the way I was treated there… Mahesh Bhatt saab saw what was happening and tried to tell her not to do that as well. But it escalated when Bhatt saab was not on set. I used to hear such stories on set where Pooja said that actors should be like dogs and should sit when told. I come from a small family and I was so scared, the articles that were written to sabotage me… I did not want to attach myself to that situation. I used to have nightmares and used to pray that I survive the whole day. I went through a lot of depression (sic)."

Muzammil Ibrahim revealed that Pooja Bhatt later called him names in the press and claimed that he lacked professionalism, but he decided not to respond out of concern that the industry would boycott him.

He further said in the interview that he was nominated for Best Debutant that year but that Ranbir Kapoor won it for Saawariyaa and that he should have been invited.Dhokha, starring Pooja Bhatt, opened to favourable reviews, with Muzammil garnering special recognition. Tulip Joshi, Anupam Kher, and Gulshan Grover played important parts in the 2007 movie as well.
