Sanjay
Khan-
Zeenat
Aman
Affair
&
Their
Rumoured
Marriage
Sanjay
Khan
and
Zeenat
Aman
met
on
the
sets
of
Abdullah
and
love
blossomed
between
them.
He
was
a
married
man
with
three
children,
she
was
a
reigning
star.
Rumour
has
it
that
they
married
in
Jaisalmer
with
two
witnesses
present,
on
December
30,
1978.
In
fact,
in
one
of
the
later
interviews
Zeenat
confessed,
"Yes,
I
was
married
to
Abbas
(Sanjay's
real
name).
I
believed
in
the
sanctity
of
my
marriage.
And
all
the
time
I
was
married
to
him,
I
have
served
him
as
a
dutiful
wife."
He
Accused
Her
Of
Having
An
Affair
Zeenat
pleaded
that
she
had
given
dates
long
ago
to
B
R
Chopra
and
Tony-Tito
for
their
film
shoot.
But
Sanjay
was
adamant.
Apparently,
he
accused
her
of
having
an
affair
with
B
R
Chopra
and
Deepak
Parashar
(the
'Insaf
Ka
Tarazu'
team).
She
was
reduced
to
tears
and
kept
pleading
for
innocence.
It
was
a
half
hour
call.
She
later
went
to
Chopra
and
took
his permission
to
leave
Lonavla
for
Bombay.
Since
everybody
had
heard
their
turbulent
conversation,
she
did
not
have
to
explain
about
the
urgency.
How
It
All
Began
Zeenat
left
Lonavla
with
her
hairdresser
Flory.
On
reaching
Bombay, she
went
straight
to
Sanjay's
house
to
work
out
the
shooting
dates.
He
was
not
home
and
she
was
informed
that
he
was
at
the
Hotel
Taj.
Zeenat
then
went
to
the
Taj
in
the
night
and
found
that he
was
attending
a
private
party.
The
actress
requested
the
host
that
she
did
not
want
to
break
the
party
but
just
that
she
wanted
to
speak
to
Sanjay
for
a
few
minutes.
However
the
host
insisted
that
she
join
the
party.
He
threw
open
the
door
and
when
Zeenat
entered,
the
atmosphere
suddenly
turned
cold
and menacing
and
the
guests
looked
stunned.
All
conversation
stopped,
and
Sanjay,
with
a
glass
in
his
hand,
demanded
to
know
why
Zeenat
had
come
there.
What
Followed
Next
Will
Shock
You
To
The
Core
Zeenat
requested
Sanjay
if
she
could
speak
to
him
privately
as
she
wished
to
settle
her
shooting
dates
and
report
back
to
Lonavla.
Sanjay
followed
by
Zeenat
walked
into
the
adjoining
room
and
it
was
there
he
let
lose
his
animal wrath.
He
did
not
give
Zeenat
a
second
to
speak.
Instead
he
abused
and
accused
her
with
several
allegations
of
having
multiple
affairs
and
relationships.
And
what
apparently
followed
was
one
of
the
most
brutal
bash-ups
any
hotel
staff
could
have
witnessed.
Sanjay
hit
her
and
she
fell.
He
lifted
her
and
hit
her
again
and
again.
One
could
only
hear
her
wails.
Flory
fight
her
way
through
the
barrier
of
guests
and
entered
the
adjoining
room.
However
Sanjay
paid
no
heed
to
her
and
continued
assaulting
Zeenat.
Finally
a
steward
helped
Zeenat
out
of
the
door.
Her
face
was
swollen,
her
hair
was
a
mess and
her
nose
was
streaming
with
blood.
Strangely,
not
a
single
guest
present
at
the
party,
intervened
or
tried
to
help
her.
She
was
escorted
to
her
car
through
the
lobby
with
blood
and
tears
streaming
down
her
face.
Zeenat
Was
In
Extreme
State
Of
Shock
Zeenat
was
in
bed
for
eight
days
after
this
gory
incident.
She
was
in
extreme
state
of
shock
and
had
to
be
injected
with
anti-depressants
three
days
a
day.
Her
Doctor's
Startling
Relevation
Her
family
physician
Dr.
A
Massa
was
quoted
saying
to
Cineblitz,
"Zeenat
was
in
a
terrible
state.
Her
face
was
covered
with
blood,
bruises
and
black
eyes.
There
were
blood
clots
in
her
eyes
and
her
lips
were
severely
cut.
But
more
than
the
physical
harm
is
the
shock
that
she
has
suffered."
Then
Why
Didn't
She
Lodge
A
Police
Complaint
Against
Sanjay
Shockingly,
Zeenat
did
not
lodge
any
police
complaint
because
she
was
still
in
love
with
Sanjay
and
was
willing
to
forgive
him.
She
tried
her
best
to
protect
him
saying
that
he
did
not
bash
her
up
but
then
her
face
was
proof
enough.
Apparently,
her
friends,
colleagues,
producer,
directors
had
warned
her
from
this
relationship.
Zeenat
was
professionally
in
top
form
those
days.
They
would
say
that
Sanjay
wanted
her
only
till
'Abdullah' was
completed.
However,
Zeenat
felt
people
were
just
condemning
Sanjay
because
careerwise
he
was
on
a
low.
In
fact
once
she
even
lashed
out
in
an
interview
saying, "I
love
this
man.
Don't
you
understand?
I
will
back
his
every
move
and
I
will
make
him
a
king
one
day."
