Mahima Chaudhry Details Contract Dispute, 1999 On-Set Crash Ahead of New Release

The actor revisits career setbacks in a new interview tied to promotions for Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shadi.

Overview

  • In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Chaudhry says she was taken to court and dropped from films after her debut over an alleged Mukta contract she maintains did not exist.
  • She recounts a 1999 Dil Kya Kare car accident that left 67 glass fragments in her face, saying the swelling left her features out of shape.
  • She describes pausing work for about a year, avoiding sunlight during recovery, and using decorative diamond dots to conceal scars while finishing limited shoots.
  • On returning, she says she was labeled a “lucky mascot” and offered cameos or single songs before moving back into fuller roles with established directors and in films like Lajja.
  • Outlets present these details as her first-person account from the interview, and she is promoting Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shadi with Sanjay Mishra for a December 19 theatrical release.
