Riya started her career in 2009 with the small screen MTV reality show ‘TVS Scooty Teen Diva’. Although she could not become the winner of this show, she had to be satisfied only by becoming a runner -up. After this, Riya was seen hosting several MTV shows.
Reject from Yash Raj’s film, got a chance in South
Riya Chakraborty auditioned for Yash Raj’s film Band Baja Baaraat, but was rejected. Later, Anushka Sharma appeared in this film. If luck did not support Bollywood, then Riya turned to South. His Telugu film ‘Tuniga Tuniga’ was released in 2012.
Flop stuck in Bollywood
Along with South, Riya was looking for a good opportunity for herself in Bollywood. At the same time, he got an opportunity to work in Bollywood in ‘Mere Dad Ki Maruti’, but this film was not a hit. All the films Riya did after this film did not succeed at the box office.
Questions raised on relationship with Mahesh Bhatt
‘Jalebi’ was the film of Mahesh Bhatt’s camp. The film was produced by Mukesh Bhatt. During that time Riya had to meet Mahesh Bhatt often. All such pictures of Riya and Mahesh Bhatt have been shared on social media, after which questions have been raised on their relationship. However, in this case Riya said that Mahesh Bhatt is the same father for her.
Career affected
In the Sushant Singh Rajput case, Riya Chakraborty was charged with all kinds of accusations. After the death of the actor, Riya Chakraborty was arrested in 2020, media trials were also held. Riya was also accused of giving drugs to Sushant.
On 22 March 2025, the CBI filed its closure report and gave a clean chit to Riya and her family. The CBI closure report stated to be suicide as the real cause of Sushant’s death. The case had a great impact on Riya’s career.
5 years are very difficult
Riya also stayed in jail for 27 days in the case of Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. He and his family faced trolling outside. On social media, Riya was called ‘Gold-Digar’ and ‘killer’ through MIMS. They were threatened to kill them.
During the conversation with Aaj Tak, Riya also shared her experience spent in jail. The actress had said- that was a very difficult time. It is not easy to stay in jail. The world there is very different. You are stripped of your identity and just a number is given. It seems as if everything is over. You go down as soon as you fall down.
Got a lot to learn from jail women
The actress further said- I saw that people are happy even in that dirty world. Learned to be happy with the women living there. When a samosa is also distributed in the jail, she is happy to see her. Their eyes have a different glow. We yearn out for things around the world and they are all happy in this.
Nagin danced after receiving Bell
I had promised all of them when I would be bail, then I will dance the serpent, but only when that time came, I got the bell. My brother was then inside. In such a situation, the jailer also said that let it be, but I felt that if I went like this today, I will break his heart. Then I danced to the serpent with them all. I can’t forget that moment. All the women were dancing with me lying down with me.
Career is fully ready
Well, Riya becomes quite emotional by remembering those days. In that tragedy, he lost his career, acting projects were stopped. Riya had recently told in an interview to CNBC-TV18 how her and her brother’s career deteriorated.
Riya Chakraborty had said-both of us siblings had completely lost their career. I had stopped working in films. Shvik got 96 percentile in CAT, but his MBA and career were completely destroyed due to arrest.
No company ready to give a job to brother
The thoughts of suicide started coming
During a conversation with Aaj Tak, Riya said- I had thought of suicide. Many types of allegations were being made against me. I was completely broken, it seemed to do suicide. People tried to break me and my family. Some people wanted this girl to do so that they could not defend themselves.
Friends handled father
In an interview with Humans of Bombay, Riya had told that when she was in jail, she realized her true friends. Riya said- when I was in jail. One or two of my friends used to drink alcohol every night with my father and used to eat with him. When I came out, everyone’s weight was increased. I said that I was in jail there and you guys are eating here, increasing weight. Then friends said that they were trying to feed the parents and make them feel a little normal about the situation.
People said- black magic
Riya Chakraborty recalls the era when people said that black magic.
I don’t mind what people think about me now. I think the day you stop making a difference from these things. Just from the same day you stop making a difference from trolls.
