Divya Bharti was one of those select actresses of the 90s who achieved immense success in a very short span of time. After starting with Telugu films, she entered Hindi cinema and captivated everyone with a hit film like Vishwatma (1992).
Entertainment News: The name of veteran Bollywood actress Divya Bharti is still counted among the film industry's most talked-about and mysterious stories. In the early 90s, she achieved such popularity in a very short time, which very few actresses were fortunate enough to attain. After making her acting debut with the Telugu film Bobbili Raja, she stepped into Hindi cinema with Vishwatma (1992) and instantly became a superstar. However, Divya's untimely death at the mere age of 19 on April 5, 1993, shook the entire industry and her fans.
Now, her cousin and actress Kainaat Arora has made startling revelations about Divya Bharti. She disclosed that Divya's mother, Meeta Bharti, had a premonition of her daughter's short lifespan and even believed in prophecies of her death and reincarnation.
Divya Bharti's Mother's Belief
In an interview, Kainaat Arora revealed that Divya's mother, Meeta Bharti, trusted the words of a priest. That priest had predicted Divya's short lifespan and her reincarnation. Kainaat stated that Meeta Bharti always felt that the world would lose her daughter very quickly, but she would return in a new birth.
According to Kainaat, when she came to Mumbai, she developed a deep relationship with Divya Bharti's family. She addressed Meeta Bharti as Meeta Mom and mentioned that Meeta had adopted her like her own daughter. This familial warmth became a great support for her in a big city like Mumbai.
Kainaat Arora's Connection to Divya
Kainaat Arora clarified that she was not Divya Bharti's biological cousin, but rather related through a distant connection. She said, "I was very young when Divya ji passed away. Later, when I came to Mumbai, Meeta Mom gave me immense love. Their family was very cultured and affectionate." She also mentioned that Divya's mother wanted her to pursue a career in Bollywood and even tried to get her opportunities in films.
Praising Divya, Kainaat Arora stated that it is impossible to compare her with anyone else. She said, "Divya Bharti was a great actress. I am still a huge fan of hers. Her beautiful eyes, charismatic personality, and amazing acting set her apart. Just as there is only one Shah Rukh Khan, only one Amitabh Bachchan, there was only one Divya Bharti."
