Mumbai: There is a very famous anecdote about the late actor of Bollywood industry Om Puri, who said goodbye to the world in the year 2017, that he fell in love with the maid working at his house. The maid was 41 years older than him. In this way, Om Puri became crazy after seeing the 55-year-old maid.
The late actor’s ex-wife Nandita Puri mentioned this in her book. Nandita Puri has told in her book Unlikely Hero: Om Puri that Om Puri had an affair with his maid. This book was published in the year 2009. It is also said that due to this revelation in this book, both of them got divorced.
It has been revealed in this book that Om Puri’s father was ill and a maid was kept to take care of him. Om Puri had an affair with this maid. When Om Puri was 14 years old, he was at his maternal uncle’s house. The light went out at home and the maid caught him and had a relationship. In the book, the maid was described as Om Puri’s first love. According to what was written in the book, Om Puri had said, for me she was not a maid. She used to take care of everyone in our house. My father was 80 years old and there was no one to take care of him. Then she came and I met her. She was a divorced woman and I was not married.
After this revelation, Om Puri accused Nandita of tarnishing his image and called her revelation cheap. Om Puri said that she used a special part of his life for cheap and false gossip. Om Puri said that like every husband, he had shared secrets with his wife, he did not know that she would use those things to sell her book. Om Puri said that there were many stories related to his life, like how his days of struggle were. But Nandita made their sexual relations the focus point in the book. Om Puri married Nandita in the year 1993 and both got divorced in the year 2013.
