Personal Life and Education
Parveen was born in Junagadh, Gujarat in a Muslim family. She did her early schooling from Mount Carmel High School, Ahmedabad and later attended St. Xavier's College, Ahmedabad. Her father Vali Mohammed Babi (died 1959), was a System administrator with the Nawab of Junagadh and Jamal Bakhte Babi (died 2001) Parveen was born fourteen years after the marriage of her parents and was the only child. She lost her father at the age of Ten.
Parveen never married but had relationships with many married men; director Mahesh Bhatt, actors Kabir Bedi, and Danny Denzongpa. She was also strongly rumoured to have had an affair with her co-star of many films, Amitabh Bachchan with whom she later developed irrational fears as she accused him of trying to kill her. Bhatt later wrote and directed Arth (1982), a semi-autobiographical film about his relationship with Babi, and wrote and produced Woh Lamhe (2006) based on facts about his relationship with her.

Famous quotes containing the words personal, life and/or education:
“It is ... pathetic to observe the complete lack of imagination on the part of certain employers and men and women of the upper-income levels, equally devoid of experience, equally glib with their criticism ... directed against workers, labor leaders, and other villains and personal devils who are the objects of their dart-throwing. Who doesn’t know the wealthy woman who fulminates against the “idle” workers who just won’t get out and hunt jobs?”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“The best thing in life is doing things people say you can’t do.”
—Jennifer Moore (b. 1972)
“If education is always to be conceived along the same antiquated lines of a mere transmission of knowledge, there is little to be hoped from it in the bettering of man’s future. For what is the use of transmitting knowledge if the individual’s total development lags behind?”
—Maria Montessori (1870–1952)
