Recently, in an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Mahima opened up about her two miscarriages and troubled marriage.

She said, “You obviously don’t tell your parents, you don’t tell your people because you feel ‘oh, this was one issue’ and then you stay back and then one more issue and then you stay back and then I also had a – I was also expecting another child and I had a miscarriage. And then I had another miscarriage, it was all because of you not being happy in that space.”

“Every time I wanted to go out and do an event, go out and do a show, I used to come drop my child at my mother’s home and then I stayed back two days and I used to feel I’m so much more comfortable here,” she added.

Mahima was last seen in the 2016 Bengali crime thriller 'Dark Chocolate' alongside Riya Sen.
