Mahima Chaudhry reveals Subhash Ghai bullied me and told producers not to cast me, only Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt stood by me

Mahima Chaudhry went on to work with Sanjay Dutt in movies like Daag: The Fire and Kurukshetra while with Salman Khan she co-starred in Baghban. She also featured in movies such as Pyaar Koi Khel Nahin, Om Jai Jagadish and Dil Hai Tumhaara. She was last seen in Dark Chocolate, which released in 2016.

Actor Mahima Chaudhry has said filmmaker Subhash Ghai "bullied" her and sent messages to several producers to not to work with her. The actor had made her Bollywood debut with 1997 film Pardes opposite Shah Rukh Khan, directed by Ghai.

Mahima told, "I was bullied by Mr. Subhash Ghai. He even took me to the court and wanted me to cancel my first show. It was quite stressful. He sent a message to all the producers that nobody should work with me! If you pick up one of the issues of Trade Guide magazine in 1998 or 1999, there was an ad that he had given which stated that if anybody wanted to work with me, that person would have to contact him. Otherwise, it would be a breach of contract. However, there was no such contract which said that I had to seek his permission."

Sharing about the four Bollywood celebrities who came out in her support, she said, "Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt, David Dhawan and Rajkumar Santoshi were the only four people who stood by me. They all told me to stay strong. David Dhawan called and told me that, 'Don't worry and don't let him bully you.' Apart from these four people, I didn't receive a call from anyone else."
