Mahek Chahal has surprisingly done a lot of things before becoming a Bigg Boss contestant and challenger! She’s quite chilled and non-controversial, but the cool stuff she’s done before becoming a part of this madhouse is far more entertaining. Check out the 10 things Mahek did before she rose to fame in the Bigg Boss house!

1) Starred in the classic movie Padoson’s remake, titled ‘Nayee Padoson’

A bit of a disaster.

2) Did an item number in Chameli

Loved the song!

Sorry Jazzy B, you peaked at Dil Lutiya, that was all.

4) Also starred in a Telugu movie called Neetho

It didn’t really work wonders at the Box-Office.

5) And a Punjabi movie Dil Apna Punjabi

She starred opposite the Punjabi rockstar Harbhajan Mann, in a movie written and directed by Manmohan Singh – who is sadly not the former Prime Minister. Imagine if the ex-PM did make a movie? How cool would that be?

6) Was a contestant in Bigg Boss 5

Rumours of Mahek being Salman Khan‘s favourite started doing the rounds. That’s kind of why I’ve put the same picture of Mahek Chahal here, a lot like the same picture of Salman Khan which is posted everyday on a Facebook page. *Soulmates*

7) Danced with Salman Khan in Wanted

Le Le Mazaa Le was THE song of 2009 (okay maybe it was THE song we didn’t admit dancing to but when it was played, people went cray cray!).

8) Appeared in Main Aur Mrs Khanna

It was a pathetic movie. Even Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor couldn’t save it!

9) An Item Number in Yamla Pagla Deewana

I think that this movie and it’s sequel were made just to remind us that Bobby Deol is alive.

10) Starred in a B-grade movie Karaar (NSFW Trailer)

Umm yeah. Don’t think this movie is something she’s proud of, it’s not even in her Wikipedia page. Not that we blame her!

P.S: It also stars that Anshuman from Jab We Met (that’s what most of my colleagues squealed when we saw the trailer).

I think in comparison to Karishma Tanna, Upen Patel and definitely Rahul Mahajan, Mahek seems quite tame doesn’t she?
