Zeenat Aman the stunning diva of Bollywood is known for her extraordinary performances and gorgeous looks. But do you about the little-known chapter of her life, that involved Sanjay Khan?

According to the reports in Times NOW, Zeenat Aman was dating actor Sanjay Khan in 1980. Though Sanjay was already married with three kids, his relationship with Aman grabbed headlines.

There were reports in the print that Sanjay brutally thrased Zeenat in front of his wife in the hotel Taj. Zeenat even got a scar near her eye. After this event, Zeenat went into a state of shock and started having anti-depressants. As per an old report, the doctor was quoted, "Zeenat was in such a terrible state. Her face was covered with bruises and black eyes. There were blood clots in her eyes and her lips were severely cut.”

Zeenat was at the top of her career when this incident happened, but she did not report this. Many years later when she appeared as a guest on Simi Frewal's chat show 'Rendezvous with Simi Grewal', she was asked about the incident to which Zeenat said, "If you are referring to the chapter in the past, it was very brief. Right now in my mind, for many years in my mind, it's been obliterated because that's what the human mind does. When there is something unpleasant, you just close your mind to it and pretend that it never happened, and you promise yourself it will never happen that's how you cope.

Even after this incident, her personal life was never a piece of cake. She later married Mazhar Khan and got separated after 12 years of marriage. Zeenat revealed that her husband cheated on her when she was pregnant with her first child.
