Hid her wedding
In the beginning, Divya Bharti and Sajid Nadiadwala kept their marriage a secret from the rest of the world. Sajid revealed the reason for this in an interview. ‘We had hidden the marriage matter because Divya’s career was at stake,’ he explained.
Divya, on the other hand, was always eager to tell the world about our marriage. I repeatedly warned him not to do so. But now I realize I should not have done it.’
What happened to Divya Bharti?
On 5 April 1993, at the age of 19, Divya Bharti said her final farewell to this world. Divya had only 11 months to enjoy her married life. Everyone was taken aback by his untimely death.
According to reports, Divya Bharti was very happy before her death because she had finalized a deal for a four-bedroom apartment for herself that day. According to reports, Divya informed her brother Kunal of the good news as well. Divya returned home that day after finishing her shoot in Chennai.
It is said that his leg was also injured at the time. At around 10 p.m., Divya was on the fifth floor of Tulsi Apartment in Versova, West Andheri, Mumbai, with her friend and designer Neeta Lulla and her husband. The trio was sitting in the living room talking, and it is said that they were also drinking at the time.
Aside from these three, Amrita, Divya’s maid, was also present in the house at the time. Amrita went to the kitchen to do some work while we were talking around 11 p.m., and Neeta was watching TV with her husband at the time. At the same time, Divya Bharti went to the room’s window and began speaking loudly to her maid from there.
Divya’s living room had no balcony, but it had a window only without a grill. This window was wide open, and beneath it was a parking space where many vehicles were frequently parked. However, there was no car parked there on that particular day.
Divya Bharti was attempting to stand right by turning to the window when her foot slipped and she fell straight down to the ground. Divya was completely covered in blood after falling from the fifth floor. She was taken to Cooper Hospital right away, but it was too late. Divya died in the hospital’s emergency department. Although it is unknown whether his death was the result of murder, suicide, or an accident. Divya may not be with us today, but she will live on in everyone’s heart forever.
