Stories from tinsel town always attract the common people, more so if the stories are related to the personal lives of the Bollywood stars. Although the paparazzi are always on their toes to give us all the updates and whereabouts of our favourite stars, there remain a few mysteries of the fraternity that are unsolved till date. Now, let us give you a glimpse into all such unsolved mysteries of Bollywood.
#1. Rekha’s Marriage
When Bollywood’s evergreen actress Rekha, was seen wearing sindoor on several award functions and occasions, it became a reason for much hue and cry among many people. While many criticised her for insulting the tradition and culture of India (Hindus), others believed that she had secretly married someone. In fact, the diva has been donningsindoor for quite a long time. This first came into notice when she was seen wearing sindoor at Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh’s wedding. Many related it to her affair with Amitabh Bachchan, which spread like a wildfire, but none of them came out in the open about it. After her marriage with Delhi-based industrialist Mukesh Aggarwal, who committed suicide a year after their marriage, Rekha has never officially declared remarrying anybody. This further made the sindoor a mystery.
Although the rumour mills churned the news of her marrying Vinod Mehra, she always declined its authenticity. Therefore, the mystery behind Rekha’s marriage and wearing sindoor remains unsolved. Rekha on her part, always justified wearing sindoor as a fashion statement.
#2. Divya Bharti’s Untimely Death
She was just 23 when she left the world. This diva was a rising star of Bollywood in the 90s. While she was known for quite some famous movies, like Deewana and Shola Aur Shabnam, it was her song Saat samundar paar with which she rose to an unexpected success, which is a must-play song at every party till date. It was the fateful night of April 5, 1993, when Divya succumbed to her injuries after falling from a five-storey building.
Married to Bollywood’s ace producer-director, Sajid Nadiadwala, the actress was assumed to have committed suicide. However, lack of evidence or reason made people speculate a murder conspiracy around her death. While police suspected her husband to be behind her death, the truth is a mystery till date.
#3. Silk Smitha’s Mysterious Death
Vidya Balan won many accolades for her daring and bold performance as Silk Smitha, in the movie, The Dirty Picture. While the movie was yet another proof of Vidya’s unbridled talent, the movie was a biopic on India’s most erotic actress, Silk Smitha.
Although in the movie, the reason behind Vidya committing suicide came out quite clear, in the real world, Silk’s suicide is still a mystery. While she was ruling the roost career-wise, people believe she had an unstable personal life. With no concluding reason behind committing suicide, Silk Smitha was found hanging to death at her residence. Many believed she poisoned herself.
#4. Jiah Khan’s Suicide

A huge outcry was made when the news channels flashed the news of Jiah Khan committing suicide. Making her debut with Big B, Amitabh Bachchan, in Nishabd, Jiah proved her acting talent with movies likeGhajnii and Housefull. She was found hanging from the ceiling fan in her bedroom on June 3, 2013.
While depression was touted as the prime reason behind her death, a later discovery of a six-page suicide letter brewed a fresh controversy. The letter revealed her undergoing a secret abortion and her relation with upcoming actor, Sooraj Pancholi, son of actor Aditya Pancholi, which had hit a rocky patch by then. Amidst all the blame-game, the real and prime reason for her taking this extreme step still remains a mystery.
#5. Mamta Kulkarni’s Disappearance
Stories of Bollywood’s links with the underworld are quite old and common. However, disappearances due to that link never fails to attract media’s attention. The same happened when Mamta Kulkarni suddenly disappeared from the industry.
Her disappearance was always associated with her rumoured affair with international drug kingpin, Vicky Goswami, and alleged friendship with the underworld don, Chhota Rajan. While there are stories of her getting converted to Islam, she is believed to be currently living in an ashram in India. However, there is still no concrete reason as to why she disappeared from Bollywood when she was at the peak of her career.
