Trust Mahima Chaudhary to do it. The mercurial Mahima has slipped back into her unprofessional ways just when it seemed her career was getting a much-needed boost. Even as encouraging pre-release reports of Yeh Tera Ghar Mera Ghar and Lajja were trickling in, the busty beauty played truant, leaving her producers in the lurch.

All, apparently, to do stage shows in the US along with Sunil Shetty and Raveena Tandon! Mahima had shown a lot of promise in her debut film Pardes, directed by Subhash Ghai. But then, she fell out with her mentor Ghai by issuing a legal notice to him for preferring Aishwarya Rai to her in Taal. Since then, wrong choice of films, unprofessional behavior and flings with co-stars like Ajay Devgan and Akshay Kumar have marred Mahima's chances of making it big in Bollywood. In between she did try to mend her ways and succeeded in getting good films like Dil Kya Kare, Daag – The Fire where her acting was appreciated but movies failed to click with the audiences. So, it seems like things are back to square one for the temperamental actress.
