7 time Nargis Fakhri Shocked Bollywood with Controversies
Think she’s just another meek little starlet? Think again.
1. The ‘Guard of Honour’ Debacle
What started out as a beautiful gesture when Nargis was bestowed the ‘Guard of Honour’ for her work towards saving the endangered tigers turned ugly when outcry rose against the bestowal of an honour which is traditionally reserved only for ministers and high ranking officials.
2. The Leaked Pictures Scandal
At a time when Nargis was being linked with every bigshot co-star she worked with, along came leaked pictures of her secret vacation with rumoured beau, Uday Chopra.
3. The Supposed Breakup
However, all didn’t end well for the couple and they are said to have parted ways shortly after which reportedly sent Nargis spiralling.
4. The Rumoured Salman Khan Tiff
He may have handed her one of the biggest dance numbers of her career on a silver platter, but media personnel insist that the duo share cold vibes in person due to Salman’s habit of pulling her leg in public and ordering her around.
5. The Chat Show Controversy
Tabloids still look back fondly on the time when Nargis’ appearance on a popular chat show with Freida granted them a week’s worth of headlines due to its racy content which had the show pushed back to the 11pm slot.
6. The Ranbir Kapoor Link-Up Rumours
At a time when showbiz was still digesting Ranbir’s sudden breakup with Deepika, further aspersions were cast on his fidelity after reports emerged about his intimacy with Nargis on the sets of her debut movie – Rumours that they have consistently denied.
7. The Cosmetic Surgery Revelation
The three-film old actress sent several eyebrows flying heavenwards when she frankly admitted that she didn’t see anything wrong with going under the knife. “I believe women need to feel and look beautiful at any age. So, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with opting surgeries or other treatments. Every vehicle needs upkeep and I’m not anti-upkeeping,” she confessed.
