On Divya Bharti's 42nd Birthday, let's take a look at the unnoticed side of her life

The era of the 90s was certainly a transformational phase for Bollywood. Full of many twists and turns, the decade withstood dramatic changes throughout. The period gave us many talented stars, who undoubtedly rule the B-Town now. One of such talent that the 90s bestowed upon us was Divya Bharti.

Who can ever forget this compelling beauty dancing to the tunes of Saat Samundar? Her ethereal charm, childlike innocence and dewy fresh beauty became the talk of the town. She had chanced upon the bittersweet taste of success merely in her teenage days. However, as they say, it’s destiny that has the last say in matters of life and death. The ill-fated actress, who was married to producer-director Sajid Nadiadwala, fell to death from her Versova residence when was only 19-years-old!

For her age, she was astonishingly talented and breathtakingly beautiful. It is believed that everyone, be it the reigning super of the era or a newcomer, wanted to work with her. Her death shook the nation and it is regarded as one of the biggest losses of the industry till date. Her invincible performances in movies like Shola Aur Shabnam, Vishawtma, Dil Aashna Hai and Deewana have made her well-known face in the industry.
