Sridevi and Mithun Chakraborty's love affair was one of the most controversial and covert romances in Hindi cinema history. Veteran actress Sujata Mehta stated the two were deeply in love with one another.
Sridevi and Mithun Chakraborty first met on the sets of K. Viswanath's 1984 movie Jaag Utha Insan. Following that, the two allegedly started dating and eventually got married, according to several rumours. For those who are unaware, Sridevi and Mithun Chakraborty collaborated on movies like Guru, Watan Ke Rakhwale and Waqt Ki Awaz.
Sujata Mehta revealed in an interview with Pinkvilla's Hindi Rush that she never really questioned the late actress about it, but she did mention that it upset her.
"Sridevi was heartbroken after her breakup with Mithun. She used to be so distraught, but she was so professional. The moment the camera turned on, she belonged only to the camera. But after the shot, she would sit quietly in a corner. They were madly in love I suppose. They got married also. Unki shaadi bhi hui thi, aisa log bolte hain," Mehta said.
