Mahesh Bhatt and Parveen Babi's affair was one of the most controversial love relationships of the Bollywood industry. Parveen Babi had alleged mental illness and their love life was not a bed of roses.
Mahesh Bhatt once recalled his time with Parveen Babi and how he fell in love with her.
According to reports, Parveen Babi was in a relationship with Kabir Bedi, Bhatt's good friend. But later, when their relationship hit a rough patch, that's when Mahesh Bhatt entered.
Biography on Parveen Babi written by Karishma Upadhyay, narrates an excerpt of Bhatt's relationship with Babi, "That evening started off two friends catching up but the conversation kept getting deeper and the silences got comfortable. The attraction between us was palpable," as reported by Mumbai Mirror.
It was a big step for Bhatt to enter this alleged relationship as she was a married man with a daughter. However, the book tells that when he was leaving Parveen's house, he saw that she did not come to the door to see him off, he heard her call his name, and when he went near the bedroom door, "She was lying there on the bed, waiting for me there was complete silence because there was no need for words anymore."
Although their love life did not have a happy ending, reports say that Parveen suffered from alleged mental illness and their love life went down a rough road for the alleged lovers.
