Mohan Deep (born Mohan Kishinchand Chandirramani in 1948), is an Indian writer.

He has written multiple books on Bollywood film personalities, including the books: The Mystery and Mystique of Madhubala, Simply Scandalous: Meena Kumari, and Eurekha!: The Intimate Life Story of Rekha (an unauthorised biography of Rekha).

In recent years, he has focused on writing fiction.

1960

Deep claims that Madhubala was forced to wear heavy shackles and whipped mercilessly in real life, and during the shooting of additional unreleased footage for the classic Mughal-e-Azam (1960), which he contends is proven by the fact that only a minor part of the total number of reels shot for the film were released to the public.

He further claims that the additional footage of the film earned Kishore Kumar a lot of money which he earned forcing by Madhubala to work as a sex slave during the shoot.

The book was heavily criticized on its release by industry veterans such as Shammi Kapoor, Shakti Samanta and Paidi Jairaj.

At the time when Madhubala was released, there was competition between publishers Magna Publishing and Times Group.

Times Group was very critical of the book.

Simply Scandalous: Meena Kumari, his biography on Meena Kumari, published by Image Books, was loved by fans and media alike.

It was serialized in Mumbai's Hindi daily Dopahar Ka Saamna.

1964

1974

Deep's first biography, about actress Madhubala, was The Mystery and Mystique of Madhubala, published by Magna Books.

The family, specially Madhubala's sister, opposed the book.

The family, described as Dehlavis by Mohan Deep, disputed the surname and insisted that they were Khans.

The author countered that the name on her grave, written in Urdu, was Mumtaz Jehan Begum Dehlavi.

1975

The play was set in 1975–77 when, then-prime minister Indira Gandhi had imposed emergency rule in India.

The censor board for the theatre refused to give permission to stage the play, even after a stormy meeting between the author and the board members.

The script was published as a book by Image Books with the same title, Nehru and the Tantrik Woman.

His next was an entirely different theme, feng shui.

1996

In the unofficial biography, published in 1996, he claims that Madhubala's husband Kishore Kumar regularly whipped her, who would later show her lashes to Naushad.
