Grandma called Vyjayanthimala ‘home-wrecker’, relationship with dad of 3 ended in marriage
From the life of actress Vyjayanthimala, a well-known fact emerges that, despite being married and raising five children, filmmaker-actor Raj Kapoor had affairs. One such affair was with Vyjayanthimala, his co-star in Sangam. When this affair came to light, Raj's wife, Krishna, moved out of their home and into a hotel. She only returned when Raj ended his relationship with Vyjayanthimala. However, Vyjayanthimala herself denied these rumors, claiming that Raj had made up such gossip to promote his films.
The affair rumors were at their peak when Vyjayanthimala was embroiled in another scandal – this time involving Dr. Chamanlal Bali, Raj Kapoor's close friend and family physician. Dr. Bali was married with three children when he and Vyjayanthimala started their relationship. Despite her grandmother calling her a "home-wrecker," Vyjayanthimala believed that Dr. Bali's marriage was already over when they fell in love.
Their relationship was often the subject of gossip, and the tabloids painted her as a "vamp" who was breaking homes.
