Taking on a role once immortalised by Madhuri Dixit, Chahatt acknowledges the intensity of the character.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">\u201cIt was an honour to play Chandramukhi. Of course, Madhuri ji is a legend, and I can\u2019t even compare myself to her. But the director felt I had a little resemblance to her, and that\u2019s how I was chosen for this part,&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">The actress shot for the same under challenging weather conditions. Reflecting on the same, Chahatt shared, \u201cWe shot this at Shahpur last year in 60\u00b0. All we did was night shifts, and by 7 AM we used to pack up because it used to be so hot. I\u2019m playing Chand (Chandramukhi), as this is a tale of Devdas, but from the lens of Chanda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Apparently, this adaptation unfolds through the eyes of Chanda (Chandramukhi), offering audiences a more intimate look at her journey, resilience, and untold emotions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">The show also stars Vishal Kotian and Krissann Barretto Karamchandani. Chahatt hopes to bring a fresh perspective to Chandramukhi with this project.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Khanna, in the past has been a part of many notable projects include \u201cBade Achhe Lagte Hain,&#8221; \u201cYaatris,&#8221; \u201cPrassthanam,&#8221;, \u201cQubool Hai&#8221; and others. As much as her professional life has turned out to be good, her personal life had once hit the rock bottom after both her marriages failed.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Chahatt was only 19 when she tied the knot with her first husband. She fell in love with him at a tender age of 16. Within just four months of marriage, they parted ways and the relationship ended on a bitter note. Chahatt\u2019s second marriage with Farhan Mirza, son of veteran actor, Shahrukh Mirza, lasted five years and the couple gave birth to two daughters.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">But that relationship too ended on a sour note, after Chahatt accused Farhan of sexual and mental harassment and also claimed that she www brainwashed into converting to Islam.<\/p>\n<p><i class=\"disclaimer-content\">(This story has not been edited by News18 staff and is published from a syndicated news agency feed &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/agency\/ians.html\">IANS<\/a>)<\/i><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-16-at-6.06.37-PM-2025-05-7a43dea8a912d72bcedea7a66b5cfe01.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/anindita.mukherjee-28213.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Anindita.Mukherjee<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Anindita Mukherjee works as a Senior Sub-Editor in the Entertainment team at News18 Showsha.
