Actor Minissha Lamba has revealed that she was accused of stealing money by her landlady. She told radio host Siddharth Kannan that when she first arrived in Mumbai, she was living in a cheap PG. However, things went south when the landlady of the PG accused Minissha of stealing money from her cubboard.The actress said, "When I came (to Mumbai), I couldn't afford anything. I was staying in a PG, at a rent of ₹5,000 per month. At that time, the PG lady accused me of stealing. 'You have stolen money from my cupboard,' she claimed. I said, 'I haven't stolen money' so I vacated the PG in two days because it was a question about izzat (honour). I didn't have money, I couldn't afford anything so I rented a flat for ₹7,000 per month which was like a big room. The whole flat was like a big room. It was so small, so small. But I couldn't afford anything more."

The actress left the PG as she couldn't bear to live in that type of an environment anymore. "At that time, it was about ego and pride, you know they'd accused me of stealing, I wasn't going stay in this house anymore and I left. Of course, the lady found the money in the cupboard after some time," Minissha added. On the personal front,  Minissha Lamba had announced her separation from husband Ryan Tham. Minissha Lamba opened up about her divorce in an interview with Navbharat Times. She discussed the taboos attached to being a divorcee and said that earlier it was women who bore the burden of a relationship. "I would like to put it like this: Everyone has the right to live happily. Divorce was looked down upon in our society but now that women are self-dependent and can voice their opinions, things have changed. Earlier, only women were responsible to bear the burden of a relationship. They had the sole responsibility for all the sacrifices (required). But now, they have understood that they have the right to walk out if they are not happy in the marriage,” she said. Minissha is best known for Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd., Bachna Ae Haseeno, and Bheja Fry 2. She was last seen in 2017’s Bhoomi. Apart from her film career, she has also been a contestant on 2014’s Bigg Boss 8. She has been a part of TV shows like Chhoona Hai Aasmaan, Tenali Rama, and Internet Wala Love.The actor made her film debut with 2005’s release Yahaan, which was also the debut of filmmaker Shoojit Sircar.
