She was a journalist with Eve's Weekly and Star & Style & was hated by Bollywood cos she supposedly outed a lot of actors' secrets & was known to hv a poison pen. She is the one who first published the article about Dilip Kumar's affair with some 'Asma'.

She was even derogatorily called a "gossip B*^%#". I would really like to read her articles & know about all the 70s scandalous happenings in bollywood !

Devyani Chaubal a phenomena of that era, a journalist with Eve's Weekly and Star & Style, the twin delights of those times, knew Khanna from those days. She'd attained a kind of notoriety for being his self-styled lover, confidante and promoter. A whimsical, complicated and moody lady whose columns held the city in thrall, I recall meeting her in the late 1970s when she was alone and dying in a tiny nursing home on Linking Road, her glory days far behind her.

All she wanted to do was talk about Khanna: the man, his moods, the agony and the ecstasy. Nothing else appeared to matter to her, neither her own career nor her dwindling health. It seemed a lesson in love and longing. "Above all," she whispered in her wavering voice, "I adored his arrogance. He didn't give a damn about anybody."
