Mahima Chaudhary, who made her debut with Subhash Ghai’s 1997-superhit Pardes, admits filmdom has undergone a sea change and that funding has become structured. “The biggest change is that production has become organised, there is proper funding,” the actor said, adding that “it is more more secure.

Currently busy with her daughter, Mahima is doing some assignments.
