If There Are No Lows in a Relationship, There Can't Be Highs: Dimpy Ganguly-Mahajan

Dimpy Ganguly in a recent interview says Rahul’s not a wife-beater and that he is a 'loving' husband. She adds "Tell me, is there any couple which doesn't fight? Fights are what keep you entertained". Read on...


Have things changed after you left Rahul's Worli home on July 29?
Things have changed a lot for the better. And I've heard, it only gets better with time.

Was the Merc intended to be a peace offering?
Rahul took fancy to the sports car and wanted to go for a test drive. He was like, 'I don't feel like getting off'. He just loved the car and bought it in a rush. Incidentally, the date coincided with six months of our marriage. It was a nice way to celebrate our togetherness.

During that tumultuous period, it was claimed that Rahul is trying to rekindle his romance with Payal Rohatgi...
I really didn't care much. She was trying to hog the limelight when others' lives were completely messed up. As I had said earlier, she's just a person who needs employment.

Rahul is thought to be a wife-beater...
He definitely isn't a wife-beater. In one word, Rahul is a 'loving' husband. Tell me, is there any couple which doesn't fight? Fights are what keep you entertained. Sometimes, you might be sensitive about your partner's needs, sometimes you might not. That's bound to create friction. But it's only normal.

But, according to your friends, that was not the first time when you were subjected to such torture...
Fights are bound to happen, if two different personalities live under the same roof. I know Rahul loves me and I'm not bitter about the tiff. If there are no lows in a relationship, there can't be any highs either.

Rahul, it's heard, was dead against you travelling to Kolkata and as a result, you had to fly back during exams. Does possessiveness get the better of him?
Rahul has lived alone for a long time and it's very normal for him to be possessive. I was very stressed during my exams. I thought I would skip a year, but my parents insisted that I appear for the tests. They didn't want me to give away that one per cent chance of passing this year. That way, even if the result is poor, the year is saved. Rahul was handling the situation in one way, whereas my parents and I were thinking otherwise. It was a clash of conflicting interests.

So, whose message had come that night — an incident that had Rahul beat you black and blue?
It wasn't any message. A call had come from an unknown number a couple of days back and I had disconnected it. That night, Rahul was going through the call register and was curious to know who that was. It was 1.30 am and I was like, "Get lost". That infuriated him. I understand that he loves me and, hence, is possessive. I wouldn't have liked it had it been otherwise.

The latest goss doing the rounds is that you'll be sharing private space with the likes of Veena Malik, Neetu Chandra and Sania Mirza in the "Bigg Boss 4" house...
It's just another rumour. I wouldn't like to comment whether I've been offered the show. But one thing's for sure — I'm definitely not taking part.

Are you featuring in any other show with Rahul?
There are a couple of offers. But I'm not going to give out the details, because if I do and things don't materialise, people will say: "She was lying". I do not want any of that.

How did the Kolkata trip go?
We went to see my ailing grandfather. It felt so good to be back with my family. Rahul and I are coming back for the Pujas. Rahul hasn't been to Kolkata during the Pujas and both of us are looking forward to it.

Any plans of starting a family soon?
(Laughs) Not yet. The thought is lovely. We are trying to know each other better with every passing day, or I would say, hour.

Rahul Mahajan Admitted to Hospital After Complaining of Chest Pains

Rahul's recent controversies with wife Dimpy have taken a toll on Rahul Mahajan’s health. After Rahul complained of severe chest pain, he was admitted to Saifee Hospital on his family doctor's suggestion.


Seems like there is no end to Rahul Mahajan's woes. After receiving brickbats for beating up wife Dimpy Mahajan, Rahul Mahajan is now facing health concerns.

According to Rahul’s physician, "Rahul is suffering from gastro-intestinal problems. He suffers from high cholesterol since the last few years.” So when will Rahul be discharged? “Most of his reports are fine, but we will keep him under observation for a few more days,” says Dr Varsha Patkar.

Rahul's family doctor also revealed that Rahul had been upset and disturbed for the past couple of days which could have added to his illness.

Apparently Rahul's blood pressure dropped considerably and he complained of chest pain. "For the past few days, Rahul was not keeping well and finally we had to admit him today for treatment," Sachin Patkar, Rahul's family doctor told Mid-Day.

The doctors have revealed that he is stable now.

Dimpy Ganguly Says Payal Rohatgi is Hounding Her Hubby Rahul Mahajan

MUMBAI: After describing the physical abuse she endured at the hands of her husband, reality television regular Rahul Mahajan, model Dimpy Ganguly has asked the media to respect her privacy. Though she will be returning to her hometown in Kolkata with her father on Sunday for a week, Ganguly defended her husband after his ex-girlfriend, actor Payal Rohatgi, accused him of abuse.


On Saturday, she slammed Rohatgi for "taking advantage of their family problems".

"I will not hear anything against my husband. What I revealed about our marriage to the media, I did because I have that right as a wife. But nobody else has the right to speak against him," said Ganguly. "It is Payal who has been harassing my husband, calling him up at odd hours and sending him SMSs. But Rahul and I do not like to malign people. I request Payal to stop this behaviour. I will not hear anything against my husband." Rohatgi has denied these allegations.

Rohatgi said Mahajan bombarded her with SMSs and calls. He dialled the landline and left a message with the maid, threatening to end his life, she alleged.

"Dimpy is going there for a week as work is pending. All is well in the family now," a Mahajan family spokesperson said.

Interview With Payal Rohatgi where she talks about Rahul Mahajan and his abusive nature.

Are you surprised that Rahul's marriage has hit the rocks so soon?

Knowing Rahul, I am not surprised. He loves to change partners. For him, swayamvar was a gimmick. He offered me big money to participate in the show (pauses).

Go on...

Rahul has been harassing me since the past two months. He has been sending me very odd messages at odd hours. Initially, I ignored his calls and messages, but eventually, I told him to lay off. But he continued.

What exactly has he been telling you?

He said, 'I am sorry. We should work out things between us again.' It all smacked of desperation. But Rahul is not a man of his word.

How long were you in a relationship with him?

Eight months. I was very serious about him and made a fool of myself.

Is Rahul aggressive?

Men have that in them if they are under the influence of something.

Drinks? Drugs?

No comments. Don't drag me there.

What do you have to say about the company he keeps?

He is surrounded by people who don't advise him well.

You haven't answered my question. Is Rahul aggressive?

Yes, he is aggressive if and when he loses it.

How often does he lose it?

(Laughs) I didn't count. But if he loses it, he is vindictive too.

Did he hit you?

Yes. It happened just before we went for Bigg Boss 3. I was late by only 15 minutes and he accused me of having an affair with my co-actor Irrfan Khan.

Go on...

I was living-in with him then. When I reached home, he was so angry he banged my head against a door. I was bleeding. He then he started cajoling me. The doctor was called. Rahul told him I had fallen in the bathroom.

Any other incident of violence?

Once I didn't take his call since I was busy. He slapped me when we met.

Describe Rahul as a boyfriend.

When he is wooing you, he will shower gifts and call you 200 times a day. But then, he changes colours. It takes very little to arouse his suspicions. Once suspicious, he creates hell. He is not even a dependable friend. Rahul is not a stable guy.

Why didn't you try to change him?

It is very difficult to change a 34-year-old.

Do you repent that you were swayed by Rahul's connections?

No. Life is a teacher isn't it?

You think that the two finalists (Nikunj Malik, Harpreet Chhabra) in swayamvar who lost to Dimpy were lucky?

Yes. And I was luckier than them. Only Dimpy...(sighs)

The Inside Story of Dimpy Ganguly-Rahul Mahajan Marriage and Abuse With Details

.... My father was taking Rahul's side: Dimpy


It was Thursday evening, Saumasri Ganguly, known to the world as Dimpy Mahajan, was pleading on the phone. The familiar and assuring voice of her mother was all she needed to break down. “I am all alone here ma, even baba (father) is not supporting me.”

By Thursday evening it was obvious, a battered, bruised Dimpy was fighting a lonely battle.

A family of extremely modest means, the Gangulys had played their parts during her closely followed reality TV marriage. They had taken a leap of faith once, but seemed to fight shy of doing it again.

They wanted her to go back to Rahul Mahajan, the man they believed truly, madly, deeply, loved her.

A man, who could afford her the life and the luxuries they had always wished for their daughter. “Or else why would Rahul send her business class tickets to return to Mumbai every time she came here for her exams?” questioned Dimpy's concerned uncle, who lives in the same house as her family in north Kolkata.

Meanwhile, the 21-year-old was visibly in pain. The bruises on her thighs, hands and forehead were raw, throbbing. She feared for her life, her father's life, who was at that very moment sitting with the man who had been beating her up.

When Mirror called up Mahajan on Thursday night, he said, "I just had dinner with Dimpy's father."

What he did not tell us was retired income-tax lawyer Saibal Ganguly, his father-in-law who had flown down from Kolkata in response to his daughter's distress call, was there as a peacemaker.

He was trying to get an idea of what could have gone so horribly wrong between the charmer of a son-in-law and their beloved daughter.

Rahul Mahajan, flush from the success of his stint in Bigg Boss which saw him garner unprecedented public sympathy, participated in a reality show to choose his wife. 21-year-old model and small time Bengali actress Dimpy, wide-eyed and in Mumbai to try her luck in the glamour world, seemed to be a perfect choice.

Rahul and Dimpy were bonafide reality TV stars and seemed determined to milk it. Both made a slew of appearances on various TV shows, always professing undying love for each other.

But there was trouble in paradise. "Fights over petty issues would blow out of proportion and turn physical. He once hit me with a hanger, leaving a huge scar on my back," says Dimpy.

The violence, she says, escalated with her insistence on appearing for her second year exams. A fact corroborated by her uncle Tapan Ganguly. "He would summon her back every time she came to Kolkata for her exams. He said, there was no need to study and for some Rs 5000-job. But Dimpy wanted to complete her studies," said her uncle.

June was a particularly bad month for Dimpy. Twice she got her mother-in-law Rekha Mahajan involved in the fracas. "I went back to Kolkata quite often because of the fights. Each time Rahul would cajole me to return and promise it wouldn't happen again. I kept giving in, in the faith that he was a nice guy and he loved me. But there was this other side of him which I couldn't handle. Also, being a middle-class girl, I wanted to give the marriage my best shot."

Terror Thursday

Things came to a head right after the young couple celebrated their birthdays, which happen to be on the same day, on July 25. "All of Wednesday we spent time together and even had a few drinks in the evening. I went to sleep, only to be rudely awakened early in the morning by a blow on my face," says Dimpy. "Rahul had seen something on my cell phone and wanted to know where it came from."

Shocked but determined not to give in to his terror tactics, Dimpy told him upfront she was in no mood to oblige. "I told him even if you kill me, now I won't say anything." It was enough to send Rahul into a fit of rage and he continued with his assault.

"When I tried to run to the servant's quarters next door, he grabbed me by my hair and kept hitting me even after I fell down."

After the beatings, he started making calls to her parents in Kolkata asking them to make her see reason. "While he was on the phone, I grabbed my passport, wallet and cellphone and fled the house." Dimpy ran down few flights and hid in the dark passageway between the two buildings and then made a distress call to her friend at 4.38 am. Only after her friend arrived half an hour later did she get out of her hiding place.

The trauma continues

Meanwhile her father flew down from Kolkata by 4.30 pm the same day, even as she remained holed up in her friend's house. By this time, she had made up her mind to walk out and went back to Rahul's house to pack her bags. "My father tried his best to help us reconcile and kept telling me that Rahul is a nice guy. At this I broke down and called my mother. I felt all alone, as even my father was taking his side. But later I could see his point of view. He is a simple middle-class man who didn't want to see his daughter's marriage breaking up."

After over two hours, Dimpy left the house, along with her belongings and pet dog Naughty (gifted to her by Rahul) to her cousin's place in the suburbs. Her father stayed back with Rahul to sort things out.

More drama was to follow. Rahul, who had by then got wind of her decision to go public tried damage control and sent her father to pacify her. The discussion between the family members continued till the wee hours of Friday morning.

As the day panned out, Rahul, clearly rattled by the attention, sent out feelers that he would speak to the media later in the day. Dimpy, though, indicated in her conversation with the Mirror team that she was contemplating going to the cops, but was held back by her concern for her family. "Before I do anything drastic, I will speak to my in-laws and request them to make Rahul understand that he has crossed the limits. If he sees reason, I will not approach the cops but stay away from him."

Many hours of parleying between family members later, Dimpy Mahajan stepped out and faced the world, pale, tired, yet resolute. "We are disturbed by what has happened. I need time alone to recover," she said before disappearing into Rahul's apartment in Sukhada, Worli.

A lonely battle

But the odds were clearly stacked against Dimpy. Her father and her in-laws wanted her to go back to her abusive husband. Her mother, the only woman who sympathised with her, had taken ill after the news of the incident reached her. In fact, Saibal Ganguly told Mumbai Mirror, "Dimpy is only 21 and inept at handling family problems. That is why she spoke to the media. Please understand, such quarrels happen between couples, especially when the girl is so young. Something must have angered but he is repentant now. Rahul's mom and I want them to stay together and Dimpy will go back to him."

Sources close to Dimpy say, she has decided to go back to Kolkata. When Mirror called Rahul later in the evening, he claimed Dimpy was sleeping at home. "Her dog is also with me," he said, adding, "The country should pray for us."

Eerily, it sounded as if he was back on TV.

Sambhavna Seth's Reaction to Rahul-Dimpy Spat - "If It's a Publicity Stunt, It's Dirty"

Item girl Sambhavna Seth, Rahul Mahajan's 'sister', thinks he and Dimpy Ganguly should come clean on the incident.

MUJHE MERE PATI SE BACHAO: Dimpy, Rahul Mahajan's wife, at their Worli residence yesterday

Rahul Mahajan treats Sambhavna Seth, whom he met on Bigg Boss, like his sister. So much so, that he brought her to his swayamvar to help him choose the right girl. Here's the reality show contestant and Bhojpuri item girl spilling the beans on Rahul and Dimpy Ganguly and what she thinks happened between them.

When did you get to hear about Rahu Abusing Dimpy?
I got lots of missed calls on my phone from some friends in the media. Then, I read about it in the newspaper. I immediately called Rahul, but his phone was off.

When was the last time you met Rahul Mahajan?
It was a while back -- after I finished Desi Girl. I have been in touch with him regularly since the Bigg Boss days. After that, I was actively involved in his swayamvar right from the elimination round. I went with him to get the wedding ring and also performed for the sangeet.

How's Dimpy Ganguly as a person?
I have had Dimpy on my Facebook friends' list for a while. She would always put up lovey-dovey status messages about how much she loved Rahul. I don't think she's a bad person.

Tell us about Rahul's chemistry with Dimpy on the show
It was clear from the beginning that he had a soft spot for her. I had this knack of ragging the girls on the show and asking them all sorts of questions. But, he clearly told me to stay away from Dimpy and not rag her.

Do you think it's a publicity stunt by Rahul and Dimpy?
Personally, I feel there's no harm in getting publicity if it's done the right way and if it helps you professionally. But if, in this case, it's a publicity stunt to get more reality shows, then it's a dirty thing. If it's proven it was for publicity, both of them should own up responsibility and come out and apologise to the people.

You think Rahul Mahajan must have hit Dimpy Ganguly?
We don't know actually what happened between the two. One thing I can vouch for is that Rahul doesn't throw temper tantrums. He was the least irritated and agitated person on Bigg Boss. All of us would yell, abuse and get our anger out, but he would keep it all inside. If he's so good at hiding his anger, there must be another side to him we haven't seen.

But he's hit his first wife...
If Rahul is proven guilty of raising his hand on a woman, there's no bigger crime than this. The Mahila Ayog should get involved and hold him accountable.

What about Rahul sending Payal (Rohatgi) text messages?
I don't understand how Payal went to the media right around the same time this news (about Rahul and Dimpy) came out. Daal mein kuch kaala hai. Payal was very close to him on Bigg Boss. He would say she's for timepass or 'roz roz pizza kaun khayega', but she wouldn't react. Even though Rahul is married, they had a chance to stay good friends.

The Incident

According to media reports, on Thursday morning, Rahul tried to open a message received by Dimpy on her cellphone but could not because the phone was locked.

When he tried to wake Dimpy up, she asked him to let her sleep.

Dimpy alleged that Rahul suddenly turned violent and thrashed her. She said he punched, kicked and dragged her by the hair. Her father arrived at Rahul's house the same evening and Dimpy packed her bags and left.

Rahul married the Kolkata-based model earlier this year on the reality show. Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayenge. His first marriage to commercial pilot Shweta Singh also ended in August 2008 allegedly because Rahul used to hit her.

Dimpy Ganguly Forgives Rahul Mahajan, Returns Home. Video of Rahul Confirming Wife's Back Home

Mumbai: It was a sort of Bollywood drama. Model Dimpy Ganguly, who accused her husband Rahul Mahajan of domestic violence and left his home, finally returned home, saying she has forgiven her repentant hubby.

Video of Rahul Mahajan Taking to the Media and confirming that his wife Dimpy Ganguly is back home



Rahul Mahajan spoke to the media and said that Dimpy had returned home and was taking a nap while he was playing with the puppy that he had gifted her on her birthday 25th July 2010.

He also said that he loved Dimpy the most and that he would celebrate their first wedding anniversary next march in a grand fashion.

Dimpy Ganguly had left Rahul Mahajan's home yesterday, alleging thrashing by Rahul Mahajan. She also said that Rahul punched, kicked her and dragged her hair. Her pictures showing bruises, were published in Mumbai Mirror.

Rahul and Dimpy got married on NDTV's reality show, "Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayega" in March 2010. Rahul had a troubled past, drug abuse and a failed relationship with first wife Shweta Singh.

After the Dimpy-Rahul issue was raked up in the media and celebrity circle, Rahul was forced to surrender at Dimpy's feet. He apologised to Dimpy and convinced her to return home this afternoon.

Although Dimpy returned home and confirmed that Rahul has apologised for his mischieves, she is yet to recover from the "shock". She hasn't yet forgiven Rahul. She knows she has a point to prove now.

Dimpy will leave no stones unturned to control Rahul Mahajan. Rahul now knows that he has got a match, who knows how to fight back hard. He must behave now or suffer.

Meanwhile, Dimpy's co-contestant Nikunj Malik defended Rahul Mahajan and wondered why Dimpy chose to go the media rather than police station. She feels that the entire "drama" was orchestrated by Dimpy to derive some mileage.

Dimpy Ganguly Hints at Reconciliation With Husband Rahul Mahajan, Says he Regrets What Happened.

I need time to recover: Dimpy Ganguly

Surfacing for the first time after the news of her being allegedly abused by her husband Rahul Mahajan, Dimpy Ganguly told reporters Friday that she needs time to recover and wants to be left alone.

Talking to reporters briefly, Ganguly said: 'Rahul and I just had a conversation and he sincerely regrets what happened.

'We are both very upset and I am extremely hurt. I need time to think about this and recover from whatever has happened. Till that time, I want to be left alone,' she added.

Ganguly reportedly had stayed with Poonam Mahajan, Rahul's sister, after alleged physical abuse by her husband. She has now returned to Rahul's residence.

Ganguly had left Rahul's place after the spat at around 4 a.m. Thursday.

This is the second time Rahul has been accused of domestic violence. Earlier, his first wife and childhood friend Shweta Singh had accused him of physically abusing her. They separated in 2008. In 2006, Rahul was arrested on charges of drug abuse.

In an interview to a Mumbai tabloid, Dimpy alleged that Rahul beat her up regularly and also pointed a gun to her head in one of their fights.

Friends, relatives and close associates said the couple along with family members were trying to resolve the issue.

'I have known Rahul to be a sober and thoughtful individual. There might have been some difference of opinion between the couple, but I am sure it can be resolved through a mature discussion,' said Prakash Mahajan, Rahul's uncle.

Rahul remained unavailable for his reaction despite repeated attempts.

Rahul Mahajan and Dimpy Ganguly to Divorce? Rahul-Dimpy Split.

Celebrity couple Rahul Mahajan and his wife Dimpy Ganguly seems to be heading for a split after Dimpy walked out of Rahul's home alleging physcal violance and abuse.


In an interview to Mumbai based tabloid, Mumbai Mirror, Dimpy alleged that Rahul beat her up regularly and also pointed a gun to her head in one of their fights.

Dimpy left Rahul's home after a brawl with him on Thursday morning.

Rahul's secretary however denied the allegations. "Our lawyers will send a legal notice to dimpy regarding this," he said.

Rahul met Dimpy on a reality show, Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayega after which they got married in March 2010.

At that time, Rahul had said, "This wedding is a second birth for me." Rahul was earlier married to his long time girlfriend Shweta Singh who divorced him in August 2008 alleging that he beat her.

When asked why he chose Dimpy out of 16,500 applicants, Rahul said, "From day one itself, Dimpy and I were very comfortable with each other. We are good friends now. I have always believed that a good friend will make a good wife, and that is what I saw in Dimpy. I can talk to her about everything. I don't have to be careful about my words or the way I talk. She is only 21 but is really matured for her age. She is always smiling. I love her for that."

However in four months the marriage seems to be cracking.

The first signs were visible last week when Rahul started sending sms to actress Payal Rohatgi who was his house mate on the reality show Bigg Boss.

Payal in an interview to a tabloid said that she did not wish to be in touch with Rahul because he was already married.

When Mumbai Mirror contacted Rahul, he denied the story and said, 'It is not true at all. I just had dinner with Dimpy's father.'

We tried contacting Rahul on his cellphone, but our calls went unanswered. Dimpy's cellphone on the other hand was switched off.

In a sensational development, Kolkata-based model Dimpy Ganguly, who married Rahul Mahajan on NDTV Imagine's swayamvar reality show, Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, dumped him, alleging domestic violence.

Dimpy left Rahul's residence in Worli after she was beaten up by him.

Mumba Mirror published Dimpy's pictures where she was seen with injuries in her left thigh and swollen face. She also had bruises in both her hands.

According to the tabloid, the incident occurred on Thursday morning, when Rahul tried to open a message received by Dimpy Ganguly on her cell phone. He could not because the phone was locked. When he tried to awake Dimpy to unlock the phone, she reportedly asked him to let her sleep.

According to Dimpy's version, Rahul suddenly turned violent and thrashed her. She said he punched, kicked and dragged her by her hair. Her father arrived at Rahul's house at 4 pm after she related the incident to him over the phone. That's when she returned to the house, packed her bags and left.

"Rahul beat me up early on Thursday morning after waking me up to know the contents of a message that had beeped on my phone. When I asked him to go back to sleep, he flew into a rage and began hitting me. He punched, kicked and dragged me by hair," the 22-year-old model told a TV channel.

The tabloid quotes Rahul as saying: "It is not true at all. I just had dinner with Dimpy's father," he said.

Another source quoted says that the abuse had started just a month after their national TV wedding. "However, the intensity increased in the past month-and-a-half," he said.

Dimpy further said that the problems started after her insistence on appearing for her second year exam. Rahul was not happy with her trips to Kolkata for the same.

When he got angry, he would also get physical. "One such fight got so out of hand that I had to call my mother-in-law. Later he was angry that I had involved his mother in the affair," Dimpy said.

She also alleged that during another fight, Rahul had pointed a gun at her. "He is a nice guy, but when he loses it, there is no telling what he might do."

Their marriage was on the verge of collapse amid reports that Rahul was chasing old girlfriend Payal Rohtagi.

Rahul reportedly sent text messages to Payal, seeking a second chance. However, Payal rejected his overtures. Rahul Mahajan's first wife Shweta dumped him for the same reason - domestic violence.

Interestingly, Nikunj Mallik, who was dumped by Mahajan on the show, had a different tale to tell. In an interview to IBN, Mallick said, "We've heard Dimpy's story, it's important that we hear Rahul's side as well. On the show he came across as calm, composed and a controlled person."

This is not the first time Rahul, son of late Bharatiya Janata Party leader Pramod Mahajan, has been accused of domestic violence. This is the second time that Rahul, who was also involved in a drug abuse case, has been accused of domestic violence.

Media reports had indicated his separation from his first wife, commercial pilot Shweta Singh, was because he used to hit her. The couple divorced in August 2008.

Shweta Singh, who was his childhood friend, had accused him of physically abusing her. The couple got divorced in 2008 after which Rahul participated in Colors' reality show "Big Boss". He continued to be in the limelight for his closeness with co-contestants Monica Bedi and Payal Rohatgi.

Incidentally, Rohatgi too has alleged harassment by Rahul, saying he has been calling her asking for a second chance.

"I just don't want to be harassed anymore. That's about it. I don't want to speak to him. He is a married guy," Rohatgi said.

Senior BJP leader Pratap Ashar, a close associate of Pramod Mahajan who was present at the live wedding function of Rahul and Dimpy, refused to be drawn into the controversy saying that he did not know anything. Dimpy Ganguli dumps Rahul Mahajan, after a night of abuse

Condemning Rahul Mahajan's actions, Minister for Women and Child Development Krishna Tirath said that if Dimpy were to press charges, Rahul would have to face similar consequences as a common man.

Dimpy has alleged that Rahul punched, kicked and dragged her by her hair. She also said that in one of the fights, he had pointed a gun at her.

Appalled by his behaviour, Jaya Prada actress and politician feels that his violent behaviour is unacceptable and reflects poorly on the society.

According to Dimpy's version, Rahul suddenly turned violent over a trivial matter and thrashed her.

Bhojpuri actor Ravi Kissen, who has seen Rahul Mahajan from close quarters from his Bigg Boss days, said that Rahul's behaviour is inexcusable and no one should raise his hand on a woman.

This is not the first instance where Rahul has been accused of domestic violence. Rahul's first marriage with childhood friend Shweta Singh ended acrimoniously on similar grounds.

Shweta refused to comment on the issue but urged the media to deal with it sensitively. Deeming it a "private matter", Singh said that violence doesn't solve anything and fails to understand why women are ill-treated.

Rahul has had a troubled past with drug abuse charges and a divorce from childhood friend Shweta Singh.

A close friend of Rahul has revealed that Dimpy is still in Mumbai and Dimpy's father will meet Rahul soon to resolve the matter.

MTV Roadies 5.0 winner Ashutosh Kaushik remained neutral on the matter and said that he was no one to comment on this matter and only the two of them know what exactly happened behind the closed doors.

Even as his wife Dimpy Ganguly has accused him of violence and battery on television, and his marriage appears to be tottering, Mahajan allegedly called up his former girlfriend, actor and model Payal Rohatgi at noon on Friday threatening to kill himself if she did not take him back.

"He called me on my landline on Friday and left a message with my maid saying that he will commit suicide," said Rohatgi.

Dimpy Ganguly Joining 'Desi Girl' Reality TV Show on NDTV Imagine

Rahul Mahajan's wife Dimpy Ganguly will be back on reality TV with Desi Girl.


Dimpy Ganguly started her entertainment career (and her marriage!) on reality TV. And now she's back to doing what she seems to love so much. Rahul Mahajan's wife is going to feature on the show 'Desi Girl', which follows city women handling all that comes with living in a village - we're talking milking cows and making dung cakes! Participating in the show are actresses including Monica Bedi (who used to be a close friend of Rahul), Sambhavna Seth, Ishitta Arun.

So what's Dimpy doing joining the show so late? Well, it seems she's going to get a wild card entry. And maybe give the other girls a run for their money? She's just one reality show old, but Dimpy did win that one in style, and became the dulhaniya that Rahul took home.

The launch of SMM Ausaja’s ‘Bollywood in Posters’, the first of its kind collection of posters of Bollywood movies compiled into a book, took place amidst swarming media attention with the legendary superstar Amitabh Bachchan himself unveiling the book.

The credit of putting together all the posters goes to film historian SMM Ausaja. “There were many posters, especially of the old films which I was not able to find. So, it took a lot of time but it was worth the wait”.

According to Amitabh Bachchan, posters are one of the most important mediums to market a film. “SMM Ausaja has taken upon himself a most tedious and worthy cause, that of the preservation of history in Hindi cinema. Posters have been an integral and the most important medium in the realm of information and marketing of films,” said the actor.

However, the megastar also mentioned a slight objection at the use of the word ‘Bollywood’ instead of Hindi Cinema in the title by saying, “The only thing I don’t like bout the book is the title but that’s a different story altogether.”

SMM Ausaja started collecting posters of Amitabh Bachchan’s films over 20 years ago, starting with his Kaalia. “It’s an honour for me, to have Mr Bachchan launch my book. He has been an inspiration for me.”

Speaking on the occasion, Ausaja said, “I’m happy and delighted to see my romance with Hindi Cinema unveiled so beautifully. I have worked very hard on this collection which has in all 5000 posters but since it was not possible to get them all in a book we decided to keep the number at 200.”

The book contains a unique collection of posters of Hindi films in the past 80 years along with their credits, popular songs and interesting anecdotes, with the oldest film poster in it being that of Alam Ara, India’s first talkie film dating back to 1931 and has been published by Om Books International, the publishing house which has previously launched books like Shah Rukh Khan by Mushtaq Sheikh and The name is Rajnikanth by Gayathri Sreekanth.

The title of the book is Bollywood in Posters. Along with the film posters, it will also have the credits, list of popular songs and interesting anecdotes.

Rahul Mahajan Talks About Wife Dimpy Ganguly and Future Plans

Being put to loyalty test on UTV Bindaas' Emotional Atyachar by a woman he has vowed to spend his life with… that must be a tough one? Not for Mr Mahajan! He supports his wife in doing that. "I am not hurt that Dimpy did this. I came out clean and now the world knows the truth."

Till the time Rahul is cool about the recent loyalty test, all's well in the paradise. They have just returned from Shirdi and Rahul cannot stop praising his bride. "Dimpy has gelled so well with my family. She did not take any time to fit in. She and my mom are more like friends. They go shopping together and do all kinds of fun stuff."



Clarifies Emotional Atyachar Wasn't Staged

Rahul's appearance on Emotional Atyachar had many eyebrows raised. While some dubbed it as publicity stunt others felt the entire affair was staged. Rahul defends himself by saying, "I am not publicity hungry and I don't need to do this for the sake of publicity. I am a celebrity and we get enough media attention as it is. I got enough coverage when my father died. I don't need more publicity."

Well, what about the show being staged? "No way was it staged," says Rahul, now a little agitated. He further says, "What you saw on the show was real and that's the kind of person I am. It is not staged. There have been so many couples and other celebs who have been on this show. They were not questioned then why me?"

On the show Dimpy said that she trusts her husband and she is doing it to prove it to the world that Rahul was totally trustworthy. "I have just come out clean as Dimpy expected."

We wonder why does it matter to Mrs Mahajan as to what the world thinks about her husband? But the images of Rahul Mahajan from Bigg Boss flirting with Monica Bedi and Payal Rohatgi are still fresh. Sure Rahul can defend that too. "You only saw some clips of the pool and Krishan Lila but I was there for 92 days. They were never aired," says Rahul Mahajan.

On is Future Plans

In the future where are Mr and Mrs Mahajan headed? "There are a lot of offers in hand right now but I can't talk about them," says Rahul. Politics or reality shows? "There is no either this or that here. Both are on the radar. But politics will happen in 2014. I will serve the people when I am ready for it," he adds. Movies? "Never say never. I don't know what may come my way. Maybe movies."

Rahul Mahajan Can't Wait to Have Children

Rahul Mahajan, who married Bengali girl Dimpy Ganguly on a TV show, is now keen to extend his family. In his latest media interaction/interview he said he now wants to have kids. But as a husband he feels he should wait for a while.


"I want children. But when I give it all a thought, I feel that as a husband I must wait and it will all come with time. On the contrary, as a father, I want children to come quickly. I can't wait!" Rahul told IANS.

Rahul, son of late Bhartiya Janata Party leader Pramod Mahajan, says he has been enjoying his life ever since he married Dimpy March 6 on Imagine TV's reality show 'Rahul Dulhania Le Jaayega'.

"We have been keeping busy making the most of our courtship period. We go for drives, shopping, night-outs, and we may plan another holiday in July. So I want work to take a backseat for two to three months to enjoy this time knowing my wife," said Rahul, who is currently playing host to his parents-in-law and sister-in-law.

Rahul was recently put through a loyalty test by his wife on UTV Bindass' show on infidelity, 'Emotional Atyachaar'. And he emerged clean. Though he didn't mind being spied upon, he was disappointed that he failed to understand that it was all a trap.

"I always used to think I am James Bond, very smart and alert. I always thought that I would get to know if anyone will spy upon me. But this time I was taken for a ride. I really felt bad about it. But no grudges against Dimpy," he said.

Rahul is happy that his wife chose to prove the world wrong about the questions people have been raising about his integrity.

"I don't think Dimpy did anything wrong by putting me through this. I don't think there's a need to question her as to why she chose to do this. After all she is my wife, not my girlfriend. Whatever she wants to do is her decision and she can do whatever she likes."

"I know she didn't do it to test her trust and faith in me, so I took it very lightly and on a jovial note," he added.

Rahul had earlier married childhood friend Shweta Singh in 2006, but separated from her two years later.
