Actress Rubina Dilaik was recently making noise for the weight that she gained while recovering from Covid-19. Now, the actress has opened up about an unfortunate incident that happened to her in 2011. In a recent interview, Rubina has revealed that she was cheated of Rs. 16 lakhs by a producer, which eventually caused her to sell her two houses and a car.

In a conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Dilaik recalled an incident of 2011 where her payments were due for months. After nine months went by, she urged the producer to meet her just once to understand what was happening. When she finally did, she was shown her records of the shoot being delayed and the loss incurred because of it.

She quoted, “My uplinks were worth Rs.16 lakhs, in 2011. And honestly, none of the events were true. There were nine such events that were written.”

Rubina also shared an incident involving an insect bite on Madh Island, during a shoot, which led to her getting sick for two to three hours. “That event was written in the ledger and the money that was deducted for that two hours of delay of the shoot was almost Rs. 1.45 lakhs. So I have paid all of that out of my pocket.”

“I was devastated. I had to sell off my house. My very own house in the city of dreams. I had two houses at that point in time, I had to sell them off because I was way behind my commitments. I was way behind my EMIs. I sold off my car. From then I decided, no Mercedes and BMWs, it’s okay. I don’t want to live in uncertainty, insecurity, and constant anxiety,” she added.

Rubina Dilaik began her acting career in 2008 with the show Chotti Bahu. After giving many great hits such as Devon Ke Dev… Mahadev and Shakti Astiva Ke Ehsaas Ki, Rubina entered the controversial show Bigg Boss last year with her husband, actor Abhinav Shukla. The couple took up the show at the time when they were thinking of divorce. However, during the show, they realized each other’s worth and by the end of it, Rubina and Abhinav were able to resolve their differences. Dilaik beat Rahul Vaidya to lift the trophy of season 14 of Bigg Boss.
