This actress was slapped by Rekha once, cried on set, then disappered from Bollywood; she is now..., her name is...

Aarti Chabria stepped into Bollywood in 2001 with Lajja, a film packed with stars like Rekha, Madhuri Dixit, Sonali Bendre, Mahima Chaudhary, Jackie Shroff, and Ajay Devgn.

As a newcomer, Aarti felt the pressure of performing alongside such legends. But nothing prepared her for what happened next during one particular scene.

In one intense scene, Rekha had to slap Aarti several times. Aarti had no idea about the harshness of the moment, and when the cameras stopped rolling, she was left in shock.

Overwhelmed, she cried for hours on the set, unable to process what had happened. Only after Rekha and director Rajkumar Santoshi spoke to her gently and explained the scene’s purpose did she calm down and continue shooting.

Despite working with stars like Akshay Kumar, Govinda, and Salman Khan in films such as Awara Paagal Deewana, Raja Bhaiya, and Partner, Aarti’s Bollywood journey never soared. She eventually moved away from acting.

In 2019, she married Visharad Beedassy, a chartered accountant from Australia, in a private ceremony. At 41, she embraced motherhood and welcomed her son Yuvan, a journey she has called challenging but deeply rewarding.

Today, Aarti Chabria has carved out a fresh path as a fashion and lifestyle influencer. Through Instagram and YouTube, she shares her style, wellness tips, and life stories, building a loyal following, proof that one can reinvent themselves, no matter where life leads.
