'Antim' actress Mahima Makwana reveals she faced politics in Bollywood: 'You don't even know why you’re being replaced'

Mahima Makwana, who was recently seen in Karan Johar's web show 'Showtime', discussed how in the film industry, money, power, and control often overshadow a person’s character.

In an interview with News18, Mahima reflected on how money, power, and control often take precedence over personal character in the film industry. She described facing unfair treatment and being replaced without explanation, but emphasized that one's work ultimately speaks for them. Mahima noted that in the industry, superficial values overshadow personal qualities, a realization she has come to as she matures.



Despite the challenges and occasional heartbreaks, Mahima Makwana remains committed to giving her best and developing resilience. She acknowledges the emotional toll of feeling undervalued or missing opportunities, but stresses the importance of patience and focus. Although she hasn’t fully accepted or hardened herself to the industry's harsh realities, she continues to handle these experiences as they come.




The web show Showtime explores the inner workings of Bollywood production houses and the power struggles behind the scenes. It features lead performances by Naseeruddin Shah, Mouni Roy, Shriya Saran, and Rajeev Khandelwal.
