Mahima married businessman Bobby Mukherji in 2006 and had Ariana with him. The couple got divorced in 2013. While Mahima was seen in a bunch of films in the early 2000s, she took a break from acting to raise her daughter. Talking to Pinkvilla about being a single mother, she said, “Frankly, there isn’t anything coming my way. That is much of it.

She made her comeback last year after her cancer diagnosis and recovery with The Signature, which also features Anupam Kher.
