Which is the shadiest Bollywood family, and why? - Page 2

Zeenat always chose weird men. She married Mazhar Khan who was nowhere near her in terms of success, wealth, looks etc and tolerated a highly abusive marriage with him as well. Zeenat may have done modern roles but she took a lot of abuse from men in life and had a weird choice or taste in men. I do not know what to call it...learned helplessness or internalised misogyny or low self esteem?

It’s strange to me as well 🤔 Perhaps, she had some issues from childhood with an abusive father figure.That often leads to women putting up with an abuser for a long time.

There is a quote - “we accept the love we think we deserve.” I think that applies in Zeenat’s case. She thought she deserved a toxic relationship and took the abuse as her due.

Sanjay Khan married actor Zeenat Aman for a small time 1978-79. She was beaten so badly by his first wife Zarine ( Sussanne' s mom) so badly that she lost eyesight of one her eye for some time.

I am surprised to know this.

I’m surprised no-one’s mentioned the Deol family yet. My friend’s cousin married in to the family and it’s hella weird man.

That’s an interesting take. So actresses, despite being famous, didn’t have financial stability, unlike heroes? Damn, that must have sucked.

Is it possible then that respectable men of that time didn’t think of them as marriage material and so, actresses had to settle with others?

this is very much the case then and even now to some extent,

the casting couch etc does not make them "marriage material" which is why somebody like the kapoors did nor want their daughters to work in movies

the only ones who circumvented it were those with illustrious backgrounds like sharmila tagore

look at the all the women then, either married much below wealth, stature, etc an sometime totally down and out ppl like zeenat or second wives (hema, sridevi) some got lucky like nargis

yes, zeenat was a very sad case, you can see the damage to her eye even now,

that is why i saw some say that what happened to sanjay khan (the tipu sultan fire) is karma

she later faced a lot of abuse with mazhar too

Bhatt Family

Alia’s dad has connections to terrorism and extremists. He also made out with his other daughter Pooja and done all sorts of strange things.

Everyone is too busy celebrating his daughter that they have forgotten all about his shady ways
