In the 90s, a preconceived notion hovered over the industry that if an actress got married, her career would come to an end. As a result, many budding actresses avoided tying the knot. However, even during that time, there was an actress in the industry who dared to get married and surprisingly broke all the prejudgments. She got married at the age of 15, became a mother at 17, and despite that, had a successful career run.

While today her journey seems smooth, there were times when this actress had to go through a lot of struggles. She faced rejection, replacement, and much more. If you are wondering who we are talking about, then this person is Moushumi Chatterjee.

Moushumi made her debut, and the movie brought her fame and recognition. As a result, she became a star overnight. With the success of her first film, Moushumi started receiving a lot of offers from the Bengali film industry. After her first film, the actress wanted to continue her studies. However, her life took another turn, and she got married to Jayanta Mukherjee, the son of the legendary Indian music director and singer Hemant Kumar, at her family’s request.

In an interview, the actress opened up about the same and said, “My father was very close to his elder sister, and she was in the last stage of cancer. Her last wish was to see me getting married. So, my father-in-law suggested that the wedding should happen soon.”

Did you know that Chatterjee’s first crush was her father? Yes, you read that right! In a conversation with RJ Anmol, the actress disclosed that her first crush was her father, as he was the first man she knew in her life. However, she laughed heartily after making this statement.
