When actor Nia Sharma posted a video of herself dancing on Instagram, she didn’t expect it to blow up into a controversy. Soon after the post went up, The ‘Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai’ actor was spammed with comments attacking her and calling her a ‘porn star’. Unfazed by the attacks, Nia says, “It was so silly. The comments were as trivial as they were trash. It is a shame that I have to explain myself. I didn’t intend to make headlines when I put up the post, but thanks for the publicity.”

The Jamai Raja actor says she was appalled at the reactions, which caught her unawares and left her annoyed. She reasons that she understands and knows what she is doing if she has posted the video herself. “Are people mad? It was not a drunk post. We were having fun while shooting a music video, and my team shot me while I was posing and I put it online. People on social media hide behind anonymity and feel they can get away with [saying rude things]. If someone spoke this way to me in person, I would punch their face in,” she says. Nia is glad that the media has been supportive and understood her point of view.

Nia uploaded this black and white video of her photoshoot –

Trolls posted comments like “Future porn star is here”, “Chiii besharam kehhikki…Miss ugly sharma”

Nia has since posted another video with a reply to the hostile comments that says-

“Here’s one more from the photoshoot!! Ready to s**t-shame a girl again? Go aheadddddd..(sic). Why are people making it so difficult for girls to live the way they want to in India. Let’s not make India a place where a girl has to think 10 times before going out or wearing what she wants. Do people want me to cover myself up from head to toe? Are we in India or Afghanistan? Calling me a porn star was… porn stars have a dignified life. They earn a living and have chosen the profession as a career. I respect porn stars more than I respect these trolls.”  

 

Oops! Here’s one more from the photoshoot!! Ready to slut-shame a girl again? Go aheadddddd.. I’ll post five more…Coz thats exactly I got this shoot done.!! And thats exactly how I’ll post pictures from the same! I appreciate everyone who took out time from their absolutely worthless lives to write filthy long comments on my previous video.! I got u job again! ✌️ A video posted by Nia Sharma (@niasharma90) on Jan 31, 2017 at 6:27am PST

Yami Gautam finally shines after bumpy ride of controversies

Nia will soon be part of a web series ‘Twisted’, produced by Vikram Bhatt in which she plays a mistress. She admits that she is “scared to put up photos” of the shoot, as she appears in a sexy avatar. The actor maintains that she will continue to act in TV shows and will work in them with the “poise and sincerity required”. But she says that if what she puts up online “doesn’t go down well with people, then they can f**k themselves”.

More power to you Nia, You Go Girl!

Jacqueline Fernandez has been booked for hurting religious sentiments and criminal charges has been filed against her. Dishoom star was seen wearing Kirpan in one of the songs, which has irked Sikh community. Along with Jacqueline, charges are also pressed against director Rohit Dhawan, and producer Sajid Nadiadwala.

The Dishoom actress is wearing a dagger, which looks like a Kirpan, in one of Dishoom’s songs. Nadiadwala, meanwhile, has already denied hurting religious sentiments, saying that the dagger shown in the movie is not Kirpan, but an Arabic sword.

“The song depicts a semi-clad actress Jacqueline Fernandez, dancing with a Kirpan, dangling in front of her legs and supported by a cloth belt worn around the waist by the actress and thereby made the mockery of the sacredness and respect of the religious symbols of Kirpan.” general secretary, DSGMC, Manjinder Singh Sirsa said.

Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) has also written a letter to Central Board of Film Certification to get the song removed from the movie. DSGMC has termed it an act of hurting Sikhs’ sentiments, and has asked for a public apology from the makers of the movie. 

“If CBFC fails to take appropriate action in this context, DSGMC will be compelled to initiate criminal proceedings against the director and case of the ‘Dishoom’ as well as against the CBFC,” the letter reads. Meanwhile, the court will be hearing the complaint on July 1.

As fans are eagerly waiting for the third instalment of Gangs of Wasseypur, the threequel of the movie has landed in a controversy even before it has floor to the floor. Gangs of Wasseypur 1.5 is slated to be completed by October and the producers want it to hit the theaters by the end of the year.

The locals of Wasseypur, however are not happy with the franchise and are set to stage protests against the Anurag Kashyap movie. According to people, the franchise is depicting Wasseypur in poor light and creating wrong perceptions that the place is a breeding ground of criminals.

The protesters don’t want Kashyap to use their town’s name in the movie and are also not happy with Zeishan Quadri, the director and co-scriptwriter, who incidentally hails from Wasseypur. They even go on to say that since the release of the first movie, the crime rate has risen sharply.

Gangs of Wasseypur 1.5 well on schedule

Meanwhile, the franchise seems to be unaffected by the recent developments and is aiming to commence the project on time. Quadri, who was in Wasseypur recently for research work has insisted that the movie’s work is well on schedule. “The first two installment of the Gangs of Wasseypur portrayed the events that occurred till 2002.” Quadri informed. “The threequel will tell what happened between 2003 and 2015,” he said.

“The script has already been completed, and now we have started shooting for the movie. It is expected to be completed by October and the movie will hit theatres by the end of this year.”

Quantico star Priyanka Chopra has lent her support to Kashyap, saying that the censor board cannot dictate terms. She added that the board has no right of tempering with the creativity and title of the movie.

“Our forefathers achieved freedom of speech and expression for us after a long struggle… Creativity should not be stopped in democracy,” Priyanka Chopra said. “In democracy you cannot dictate what one should eat or watch a movie on a social issue.”

This is probably the first time the whole Bollywood family has come out openly, supporting each other. The controversy on Anurag Kashyap’s Udta Punjab has brought the industry together.

Akshay, who generally avoid giving his opinion, like it was seen in of the episodes of ‘Koffee with Karan’ said that even commercial films face the brunt of censor board’s dictating attitude.

“I made a film which was very entertaining, Desi Boyz, it got an adult certificate,” Akshay recalled. “Eros International (producer) knows about it. So there’s nothing like that. If it gets stuck, it gets stuck.”

Kangana Ranaut, a three-time National Awards winner, said that movies should be given creative freedom, and such incidents shouldn’t happen in future.

“Cinema is all about detailing,” Kangana said. “We need our own creative freedom and we are definitely sort of pressed against the wall and there is so much outrage. I hope it will be addressed and hope there won’t be such incidents in future.”

Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor starrer ‘Udta Punjab’ is yet to get clearance from the Censor Board of India, but Shahid is hoping that the movie will be made tax free as it’s telling ‘something that people need to know’.

‘Udta Punjab’ is based on how drugs have destroyed youth of Punjab, especially in the northern region of the state. Shahid, in the movie, is essaying a role of high-on-drugs rockstar Tommy Singh. The movie also features Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh.

“To be able to put a message across and to reach out to a number of people you have to entertain them,” Kapoor insisted. “I hope they make this film tax-free so that people can watch this for less money because it is telling something that you need to know.”

‘Udta Punjab’ yet to get Censor Board clearance

Reports suggest that the censor board has refused to give clearance to the movie because of excessive use of abusive language, swearing and drug consumption. Anurag Kashyap, film’s co-producer, has stated that the movie has not been banned. Shahid, meanwhile, has distanced himself on making any comments on the controversy.

“I don’t want to comment on something that hasn’t been defined yet,” Kapoor said. “Once it gets defined and once we understand what the expectation is and what the final decision is (then we can talk about it). Right now, it is in the process of dialogue.”

Both Aishwarya Rai and Katrina Kaif have stood up for their ex-boyfriend Salman Khan on the recent Rio Olympics controversy. There has been a big backlash to Salman’s appointment as India’s Goodwill Ambassador for the Rio Games. Although Katrina has never been hesitant to mention Salman’s name in public but Aishwarya and Salman have avoided each other ever since their bitter break-up. So the support for Salman coming from Aishwarya’s corner has come as a big surprise.

Although she never directly mentioned Salman’s name in the comment, it was but obvious which way she was tilting on the controversy. “I have to say that anyone who is doing good to represent the country or working or speaking or standing for the betterment of art, music or sports, is wonderful and the person needs to be recognised,” said Aishwarya, keeping herself as neutral as possible.

Several sporting icons like Olympic bronze medallist wrestler Yogeshwar Dutt and legendary athlete Milkha Singh have objected to the idea that Olympics needed a Bollywood actor’s endorsement.
