“I was a single mother and had to earn money: Mahima
Bollywood sources have added that after a decade long sabbatical, Mahima Chaudhary has returned to the big screen with the recently released Bengali thriller, “Dark Chocolate”, which is loosely based on the Sheena Bora murder mystery and the actress, who has made her debut opposite SRK in the 1997 hit “Pardes”, went low in 2006 since she was "bored" of her routine".
Mahima has told that she remembers wrapping up the shoot for “Hope and A Little Sugar” and going straight to a salon to cut her hair very short. Later, and she went to the US where she has met my husband, Bobby Mukherji (an architect) and they have decided to settle down and after marriage, she was only concerned about raising her daughter, Ariana.
She has also added that she was a single mother and had to earn money, with a child, it was difficult to take up films, as it would have consumed a lot of time and so she has started judging a few television shows, making appearances at functions or cutting ribbons because it was convenient for her and it has also gave her quick and good money.
She doesn't mince words while talking about the sports star Leander Paes as he may be a good tennis player, but he didn't play fair with her and it wasn't really shocking for her when she has come to know that he was going around with someone else and his exit had no impact on her life and in fact, she has become more mature as a person.
