Pooja Bhatt defies Bollywood’s script of enduring marriages for appearances. Debuting young in ‘Daddy,’ she captivated audiences in ‘Sadak’ and ‘Zakhm.’ Her 2003 marriage to Mannish Makhija ended after 11 years, a move she describes as essential self-rescue.
On ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2,’ she dissected the choice: ‘The relationship was draining my essence. No ill will toward him—he’s decent—but I craved my old self back. I opted out to live freely.’ Pooja rejects marriage as happiness’s cornerstone, advocating decisions rooted in personal truth.
Transitioning seamlessly to directing ‘Paap’ and ‘Jism,’ she commands respect across film facets. This independence defines her.
Pooja’s transparency demystifies celebrity splits, highlighting internal battles over public facades. Her post-divorce vibrancy affirms the wisdom of her path. For fans and followers, it’s a clarion call: safeguard your core, even if it means rewriting your story mid-chapter. Pooja Bhatt lives unscripted, and thrives.
