Mahima Chaudhry says she was called ‘Scarface’ post accident

  • April 07, 2021

Bollywood actor Mahima Chaudhry has revealed that soon after Ajay Devgn tied the knot with Kajol, a director started a rumour that he was in love with her. What triggered the grapevine was Devgn standing up for Chaudhry against the said filmmaker in the face of her career-threatening accident.

Chaudhry got into a car crash on the last day of the shoot of Dil Kya Kare, causing pieces of glass to pierce through her face. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, she said, “They [the media] came to the set when nobody was allowed and took a shot, and called me ‘scarface’. How nasty can you be?” The actor was also supposed to make a guest appearance on another film during that time, reported Hindustan Times.

But in conversation with the prior outlet, she recalled how once she returned to sets of that film, she asked the director to not film close-ups of her, since her face was scarred. He agreed, but she noticed how he kept moving the camera closer as the shoot progressed.

Following this, her co-star Devgn noticed her discomfort and asked, “‘You’re not ready?’ and I said no. Then he told everyone to just let me be. He also told the director, ‘She is just getting off this accident. Things can wait.’ And in response, the director said that the set will have to be dismantled to which Ajay said okay.”

Mahima continued, “I remember post that, the director went and told everyone that Ajay Devgn is in love with me and there were rumours in the magazines that I was seeing Ajay Devgn. That made me even more uncomfortable. He had just gotten married sometime back when we were doing Dil Kya Kare. And that film was not even complete when they got married.”

Nevertheless, she praised Devgn for being a ‘generous’ producer after he ensured that she got the best treatment following her accident. Dil Kya Kare was only her second film, after she made her debut with the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Pardes.
