In 2001, Bollywood witnessed the debut of ‘Lajja’, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. This film boasted a star-studded cast, including veterans like Rekha, Madhuri Dixit, and Mahima Chaudhary. However, amidst the glamour and anticipation, an unexpected incident left a profound impact on one newcomer’s journey into the industry. That newcomer was Aarti Chabria.
A Shocking Debut Scene with Rekha
During the filming of ‘Lajja’, Aarti found herself in a scene where her co-star Rekha had to deliver multiple slaps. What made it even more challenging was that Aarti had no prior knowledge of this intense sequence. The repeated slaps left her in a state of shock and tears, making it a tough start to her Bollywood journey.
Overcoming Adversity
Despite the initial shock and distress, Aarti found solace and understanding after Rekha and Rajkumar Santoshi explained the scene’s significance and artistic intent. This incident became a crucial learning experience for Aarti, helping her grow as an actress and navigate the challenges of the industry.
Sharing Screen with Bollywood A-listers
Following her debut, Aarti Chabria went on to grace the silver screen alongside renowned actors such as Akshay Kumar, Govinda, and Salman Khan. From ‘Awara Paagal Deewana’ to ‘Partner’, she showcased her talent and versatility through various roles, earning recognition for her performances.
Aarti’s Shift Away from Bollywood
Despite her efforts and talent, Aarti Chabria’s leading lady status in Bollywood didn’t lead to sustained success. Faced with limited opportunities, she explored roles in regional cinema but encountered similar challenges. Eventually, she made the difficult decision to step back from the glitz and glamour of the film industry.
Aarti’s Life Beyond Films
Today, Aarti Chabria has carved a successful path for herself as a lifestyle and fashion video creator, garnering significant income through her online content. In 2019, she married Visharad Beedassy, an Australia-based chartered accountant, and is happily settled in her personal life.
