This is a story about a Bollywood director who created numerous successful films and earned significant recognition within the industry. His daughter is now also making a name for herself in Hindi cinema and has become a superstar. She possesses a fortune worth billions of rupees. However, the filmmaker once faced hardships while searching for employment. He began his quest for work at the young age of 15, often going without food.
The director in question is Mahesh Bhatt. He contributed numerous remarkable films to Bollywood during the 80s and 90s, which continue to be discussed today. Bhatt achieved remarkable popularity and success in Bollywood. He started working at a young age, standing on his own feet at just 15 years old.
Mahesh Bhatt, who recently turned 77, was born on September 20, 1948, in Mumbai. His father’s name was Nana Bhai Bhatt and his mother’s name was Shireen Bhatt. Mahesh recounted in an interview that at 15, his mother once said to him while he was eating, “Son, you don’t look good eating, your sisters work and you are eating here.” These words of his mother deeply affected Mahesh.
After listening to his mother, Mahesh Bhatt left his food and left home in search of work in half pants. He said that when he left the house in anger at that time, his mother did not even stop him. After that, the director went to a friend and asked him to get a job.
Following in her father Mahesh Bhatt’s footsteps, Alia Bhatt also succeeded in establishing a prominent name in Bollywood. She has worked in several outstanding films, including ‘Raazi,’ ‘RRR,’ ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi,’ ‘Gully Boy,’ ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania,’ ‘Dear Zindagi,’ and ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania.’ Alia is among the highest-earning actresses in Bollywood, with a net worth of 550 crore rupees.
