as posted by the channel

Mahesh Bhatt recently opened up about his hit film Aashiqui and revealed that the movie showcased his own love story with his first wife, Lorraine Bright, aka Kiran Bhatt. During a conversation with Bombay Times, the ace director, while acknowledging being an autobiographical filmmaker, said, 'The romance you see in Aashiqui is based on my first love with Lorraine Bright. I was 16, and she was 14 and studying in Bombay Scottish.' He further recalled, 'The classroom scenes, her being thrown out and becoming my responsibility…my personal life was in Aashiqui. That film had the truth of my life and the musical vision of Gulshan Kumar.' Notably, Mahesh Bhatt and Lorraine Bright got married to each other at the age of 20. This is when she changed her name to Kiran Bhatt. When the filmmaker was 21, they welcomed their first child in their lives - Pooja Bhatt. Speaking about the romantic-musical 'Aashiqui', the film was released in the year 1990 and achieved cult status. Starring Rahul Roy, Anu Aggarwal and Deepak Tijori in lead roles, not just the movie, even its songs still rule the hearts of many. For more news and updates, stay tuned to ETimes.
