Mafia Queens of Mumbai

According to HT's report, journalist Hussain Zaidi has talked about Sapna Didi in his book 'Mafia Queens of Mumbai'. In the book, he has referred to Sapna as a "revengeful angel". An extremely attractive woman, who infiltrated the dark underbelly of Mumbai's underworld in search of revenge.

Who was Sapna Didi?

Sapna Didi's childhood name was Ashraf. She was born in a Muslim family in Mumbai. When Ashraf was very young, she met a gangster named Mehmood Khan and married him. Ashraf was not aware of her husband's links with the underworld. She saw her husband shot dead in front of her eyes at the Mumbai airport after returning from a trip to Dubai. Ashraf later learned that her husband was killed on the orders of Dawood Ibrahim because he refused to carry out an order of the don. After this, she decided to take revenge on the don.

Ashraf became a dream

Ashraf approached gangster Hussain Ustara, who was known for his rivalry with Dawood Ibrahim. Ashraf's personality also changed. From a burqa-wearing woman, she became "Sapna Didi" – a female gangster who wore jeans and shirts, rode bikes and carried guns.

Murder of the dream

According to Hussain Zaidi, Sapna didi hatched a daring plan to kill Dawood during an India-Pakistan cricket match in Sharjah in the early 1990s. The plan was leaked to Dawood Ibrahim. In 1994, she was killed by Dawood's men in her Mumbai home. Sapna was stabbed 22 times inside her home. She died before reaching the hospital.
