By IANS,
[RxPG] Mumbai/Srinagar/Lucknow, April 20 - A small-time actress who allegedly slashed her wrist in front of Abhishek Bachchan's house in Mumbai, claiming he had jilted her, was Friday arrested for attempted suicide hours before the star actor was to marry Aishwarya Rai.
With blood dripping from her wrist, the girl - whose screen name is Jahnavi Kapoor - had reached the Bachchan bungalow after midnight Thursday where pre-nuptial celebrations of the Abhishek-Aishwarya wedding were in full swing.
The former model, whose real name is said to be Naina Haya Rizvi and who played a small role in Abhishek-starrer 'Dus', told reporters Friday that she had been jilted by the star.
While the girl's mother, settled in Kashmir, claims to have known of the 'affair', her former father-in-law from Lucknow said 'she is capable of doing such things...She was enamoured by glamour.'
Naina's mother Shaheena Nasir, who originally hails from Lucknow and now lives in Kashmir, said: 'We have been tortured by the media since morning. Please leave me alone. Yes, I knew of my daughter's affair with Abhishek.
'I always advised her to control herself and bury the affair as she is a Muslim and Abhishek is a Hindu and their affair could create social complications for both the families,' Nasir told IANS here.
She said that Naina was one of her four daughters from a previous marriage. Nasir married her second husband Agha Nasir in 1982.
Agha Nasir, however, said Naina was one of the two daughters who remained with their father Mohsin Rizvi in Lucknow.
'I know nothing about this affair. Naina lived with her father along with her other sister while the remaining two sisters lived here in Kashmir with Shaheena and me. - are studying management in England.'
Agha Nasir said Naina also had a 10-year-old son from her divorced husband, Kalbe Hassan. '- is living with us here,' he said.
In Lucknow, Maulana Kalbe Sadiq, the senior vice president of the AIMPLB -, confirmed that Jahnavi's real name was Haya. He also said her father was Mohsin Rizvi, a lawyer in Lucknow who was separated from Naina's mother.
He said: 'Naina was her nickname. This girl was married to my son in 1997, then they divorced in 2001. We did not approve of her at all, but my son insisted and so we allowed him to marry. We are trying to get our grandson back from his nani -.
'I fail to understand why she is doing all this. But she is capable of doing such things because she always had a craving for becoming an actress and getting into filmdom. She was enamoured by glamour,' he added.
