Meet National Award Winning Actress Who Faced Humiliation on the Sets

SIBY JEYYA
Having performed in more than 160 films to date, she is among the most highly regarded actresses. She has also performed on her own as an actress in independent films with unusual characters. However, she was well known for her roles in mainstream films. With five wins for Best Lady at the National Film Awards, this lady is uncountable among the others. She received awards for the films Ankur, Arth, Khandhar, Paar, and Godmother. In addition, she received the Padma bhushan in 2012 and the padma shri in 1998.
I'm sure you can figure out who we're talking about by now. She is Shabana Azmi. Speaking candidly about her difficulties, Shabana recently related an instance in which her choreographer Kamal emotionally tormented her on the Parvarish sets. shammi Kapoor, amitabh bachchan, Vinod Khanna, and neetu singh co-star in this 1977 film.
 
Shabana Azmi used to have a lot of trouble with dancing scenes. A similar thing occurred in Parvarish when the choreographer made fun of her in front of the younger performers. She started crying and considered giving up on Bollywood. "I cannot dance to save my life," Shabana said in an Adi Pocha podcast. I can't walk with two left feet. I had questioned the choreographer, Kamal Master. "Please give me rehearsals," I pleaded. Rehearsal is not necessary, he replied. It only needs a clap.
 
She was unaware that a full-fledged dance performance was necessary for the moment. She felt fortunate to have Neetu at her side, monitoring her. I was with neetu singh, which is why it was so terrifying. Neetu would have completed two practices and seated over there before I could even figure out where to position my left and right feet," she said.
Do you know shabana azmi had suicidal thoughts?
Shabana tried to take her own life twice when she was younger. "One morning, when Shabana was nine years old and baba Azmi was just six, I was giving them their breakfast and picked up a toast from Shabana's plate, saying, 'Betey, Baba's bus will be here soon, so I am giving this toast to him,'" according to her mother Shukat's memoirs. I've dispatched Alice to buy some bread, and she should be back any moment, so you have a little more time. Shabana quietly got up from the table. I yelled, "Shabana, Shabana, come Betey, look your toast is done," as soon as Alice came back. I heard her in the toilet weeping as though her heart would burst and hurried to her. Shabana quickly brushed away her tears and headed for school the instant she spotted me.
 
"She went to the laboratory and took some nila thotha," the autobiographical passage says. Thankfully, the poison's expiration date had gone. When Parna, Shabana's best friend from kindergarten, informed me that Shabana had told her, "Mummy loves baba more than she loves me," I broke down in tears.
