Indian cinema is incomplete without actresses. From Madhubala, Meena Kumari, Mumtaz to Rekha, Sridevi and many more, these actresses are the pride of Bollywood. However, there was an actress who was once a bigger name in Bollywood. However, little did this actress know that her fate had written something else for her. This actress got romantically involved with a star kid, who ruined her career.
If you are wondering who this actress is, then let us tell you, she is the very famous 1981 ‘Love Story’ diva, Vijayta Pandit.
Vijayta made her debut in 1981 with Love Story, which turned out to be a huge hit. Fans loved Vijayta and Kumar Gaurav’s pairing on screen. The movie made both of these actors an overnight sensation. The film was directed by Rahul Rawail and Kumar Gaurav was cast opposite Vijayta Pandit.
Kumar Gaurav is the son of the star of his time, Rajendra Kumar, and Vijayta also belongs to the musical family of Pandit Jasraj. Vijayta and Kumar Gaurav’s love story also started with the film Love Story.
In the 80s, Vijayta turned out to be a bigger star than Sridevi and Madhuri. However, when Vijayta and Kumar’s relationship came to the limelight, everything changed. Kumar Gaurav’s father Rajendra never approved of this relationship and asked him to break up with Vijayta and focus on his career. In an interview given to Lehren Retro, Vijayta has accused Rajendra Kumar of ruining her career.
Vijayta, while talking about Rajendra Kumar, said, “He used to get very angry and I could sense it. He would scold Bunty (Kumar Gaurav) and tell him to focus on work. ‘You should not fall in love with this girl. You are my prince. I will get a princess for you. I will get you married to a rich girl from a good family,’ he used to say this. I used to get scared.”
