Mahesh Bhatt claims Parveen Babi should have withdrawn from Bollywood due to her ‘spiralling into madness'

Mahesh Bhatt and Parveen Babi 's relationship is not hidden from anyone. The actress was dealing with her mental health concerns even at the time. But since it was during the 1970s, Babi was never really formally diagnosed. During a recent interview, the filmmaker spoke about how she should have withdrawn from the industry as she had a physiological vulnerability. Despite that, she was trying to fit herself back into the competitive world. Mahesh Bhatt recalls Parveen Babi's final days In the Himanshu Mehta Show, Mahesh Bhatt recalled Parveen Babi's final days. He claimed that despite her vulnerable condition, she couldn't distance herself from the limelight. The filmmaker revealed that all attempts were made to make the late actress realise that once she had that kind of breakdowns, there was no way she should try to fit herself back in this fiercely competitive space. Mahesh further added, 'But I think once you have tasted this business, the high of the arc lights, it's very difficult to turn your back on it. But what happened to her was an unimaginable tragedy.' Mahesh Bhatt recalls Parveen Babi's last words In the same interview, Mahesh Bhatt also spoke about Parveen Babi's last words, which were 'dar lagta hai' (I feel scared). He also revealed that though she always showed only the glamorous side to the world, she was a simple woman at heart. 'Behind closed doors, she was a simple woman from Junagadh, Gujarat, who wanted to put oil in her hair and cook food at home. But the clothes she used to wear were very glamorous, so that she looked like a superstar. But on the inside, she was a simple girl.' Mahesh Bhatt on Parveen Babi's past life Earlier in an interview with BBC News Hindi, Mahesh shared that Parveen rarely mentioned her past marriage, but the topic occasionally surfaced during visits from her mother, who came from Junagadh. According to Bhatt, Parveen's mother would occasionally mention that she had once been married, but her husband had moved to Pakistan and never returned. This came up during the time Bhatt was living with Parveen. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more such updates.

Superman' box office collections day 17: James Gunn's film stays the course; soars past Rs 3600 Cr globally

James Gunn's Superman (3D) is showing no signs of slowing down globally. With a whopping worldwide gross of Rs 3603.76 crore, the film has become one of the standout performers of the year internationally. In India, while the total net collection stands at Rs 47.95 crore, the movie has earned an estimated gross of Rs 57.26 crore, as reported by the Sacnilk website. Regional versions contribute The film's dubbed Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi versions have shown patchy performances in contrast. Telugu has collected Rs 1.67 crore so far, with the early days contributing the bulk. Tamil fared similarly with Rs 1.84 crore net, where the peak was mostly during the first weekend. The Hindi version has pulled in Rs 9.65 crore so far, thanks to support from Hindi-speaking metros and decent Sunday traction during the first two weekends. Although numbers started tapering off post Day 10, the Hindi audience has shown a steady trickle. Strong start, predictable dip, and weekend revival 'Superman' launched with Rs 7.25 crore on day 1 and picked up further on its first Saturday with Rs 9.5 crore. The film saw a minor drop on Sunday but maintained momentum, closing its opening weekend with Rs 26 crore. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Casa Maquista chefs explore turmeric's essence in Macanese cuisine.

Though far from record-breaking, 'Superman's numbers reflect a stable theatrical presence, aided by Gunn's fresh take on the DC universe and a cast that brings renewed energy to familiar capes. With a few more days of run ahead, the film may inch closer to the Rs 50 crore milestone in India. The film features David Corenswet as the iconic Superman alongside Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult , Isabela Merced , Nathan Fillion , Anthony Carrigan, and Edi Gathegi in prominent roles.
