In conversation with Raj Shamani's, Bharti opened up about her childhood and said that how her mother used to get scolding from employer Comedian Bharti Singh is one of the most loved entertainers in the country and doesn't need any introduction. She recently opened up about her difficult childhood and the struggles her family faced before she found success. In a candid conversation, Bharti revealed that her mother worked as a domestic help to raise the family after her father's death. In conversation with Raj Shamani, Bharti opened up about her childhood and said, 'I remember my mother would come home after some employer had scolded her. She would tell my sister about it. She would get upset if she broke a plate or something. Sometimes, she would get hurt also, and we'd see a bandage on her hand. On Diwali, we would wait for our mother eagerly, because we knew she'd get a box of sweets. We could never afford sweets. We couldn't afford firecrackers. We couldn't even imagine buying new clothes. I would get old clothes given to her by her employers," she said. She further added, 'My mother was beautiful, she had long hair. She could've easily gotten married again. But she became a house help. Kaam waali ban gayi thi logon ke ghar. Main kaam waali ki beti hoon (She became a house help. I am the daughter of a house help). I remember, some days, I would go with her when she worked. And ladies would tell her to mop up properly. They've give her leftover food, and we'd be so happy that we'd get to eat kofta or daal makhani." Bharti mentioned how, despite wanting to abort her first, her mother gave her a lot of love and always supported her career. She mentioned how her mother raised her and her siblings alone when their father died, and how she stood tall in the face of financial troubles. Today, as Bharti has established herself as one of the most famous names on Indian television, she has showered her mother with many luxuries and expressed her gratitude. Bharti Singh won hearts by performing alongside the likes of Kapil Sharma, Krushna Abhishek, and Sudesh Lehri, among others. Today, Bharti is among the highest-paid names in Indian television. Bharti, Haarsh's Love Story Bharti and Haarsh first met on the sets of a comedy show, where Haarsh was working as a scriptwriter. Their professional chemistry soon turned into a beautiful romance that captured fans' hearts. The duo tied the knot on December 3, 2017, in a grand destination wedding in Goa.

Faissal Khan dares brother Aamir Khan to deny his extramarital affair with Jessica Hines: ‘I can prove it'
Tensions between Aamir Khan and his brother Faissal Khan have come to light, with Faissal declaring that he has severed all ties with the family. He has alleged that Aamir had an affair with UK-based Jessica Hines while still married to his first wife, Reena Dutta, and even fathered a child with the journalist. Now, he has asserted that Aamir can't deny these claims. On Monday, Faissal Khan held a press meet to discuss why he had cut ties with his brother Aamir Khan and the rest of the family. On Aamir getting offended by him In an interview with Hindustan Times, Faissal looked back at writing an abusive letter to the whole family when they tried to put pressure on him to get married again. He shared that at that time Aamir got divorced from Reena Dutta and was living with Kiran Rao. 'After my divorce, my family started putting pressure on me to get married to my auntie… I was telling them to let me work and settle down. I got so upset and angry that I wrote a letter which was slightly abusive in nature to point out the relationships of my family members,' Faissal said. He added, 'My sister Nikkhat had 3 marriages. Aamir went through a divorce with Reena. He had a child with Jessica Hines out of wedlock. And then was staying with Kiran Rao… I wanted to tell them to look at themselves first. They took offense to that letter and my opposition to get married and declared me mad… No one likes to know the truth about how their marriages, and their relationships are not working out. I put that mirror in front of their face.' On Aamir's divorce with Reena Aamir and Reena got married in 1986. They also have a daughter, Ira Khan and a son Junaid. Aamir and Reena divorced in 2002. Talking about Aamir's failed relationship with Reena, Faissal shared, 'I was there around when his relationship was not working with Reena. They got divorced and then he went into his work. I was also struggling with my work.' 'Around the time of his divorce, Aamir had started his production company, Aamir Khan Productions, with the film Lagaan. He was involved with his work a lot, and Reena was also helping him in the front. I could see his relationship going bad and with everything was happening with Reena, but I couldn't help it. That was his decision. He had to live his life,' he added. Faissal mentioned that Aamir's divorce from Reena was one of the triggers which disturbed him. 'I was like why are you telling me to get married again,' he said. On Aamir's affair with Jessica Faissal has claimed that Aamir was in a relationship with Jessica while still married to Reena. After that, he started living with Kiran. 'I was seeing the atmosphere and saying let me also take my decision since everyone is taking their right decisions. Allow me also to live my life freely,' Faissal stated. Faissal goes on to claim, 'Everyone knows that he has had a relationship with Jessica and he has a child. He can't deny that. You can do a DNA test. I have proof of everything that I am saying… It's not me who's just fabricating.' On Aamir trying to have a good image Faissal has accused Aamir of carefully crafting a public persona that, according to him, is far removed from reality. 'He is trying to create a clean image for the audience, but you can find out his image by him having so many relationships with women and all that… He likes to whitewash his image which is not the reality,' he says while wrapping up.
