I am not ashamed of anything: Radhika Apte lashes out over questions about leaked nude scenes from ‘Parched’

October 6, 2016

New Delhi, Oct 6: Bollywood actress Radhika Apte, who is known for wearing her heart on her sleeves, recently slammed a reporter on being quizzed about her leaked nude scenes from the movie ‘Parched’.

1-1475673459Apte stated that she isn’t ashamed of doing bold scenes on screen when the script demands.

It’s been a while that some of Radhika’s bold scenes with actor Adil Hussain from ‘Parched’ went viral before the release of the movie and created a stir in the industry. However, the makers did claim that the movie is much more than the nude scenes, Apte too had stated that she isn’t bothered about the leaked scenes.

But the actress got agitated during a recently held press conference, when a reporter quizzed her about the role of controversy in the success of the movie targeting her leaked scenes.

Miffed by the question, Radhika hit back at the journalist and said that it was indeed a ‘ridiculous’ question to ask. She further retaliated saying, “Controversies are made by people like you”.

The actress spoke her mind and said that being an artiste she will do whatever is required for her job.

Speaking about the conservative approach of people, Radhika said that it is those people, who are embarrassed of their bodies, tend to get curious about other’s body.

“If you get out of your cocoon and look at world cinema and what people are doing abroad, what people are successfully doing, people who are not ashamed of their bodies, you’ll probably not ask me this question”, Radhika said.

Apparently, the leaked nude scenes of the actress were considered to be a publicity gimmick. However, despite creating a big controversy before release, ‘Parched’ failed to leave a mark at the box office and made a lifetime collection of just ₹ 1.07 crore.

Directed by Leena Yadav, the movie was co-produced by Ajay Devgn. ‘Parched’ also featured Surveen Chawla and Tannishtha Chatterjee.

Mumbai, Jan 13: On the ongoing protests against new Citizenship Law, Bollywood actor Zeeshan Ayub said that everyone has been exposed and the common man has understood everything and the right-wing people cannot make a fool out of them by giving vague statements.

Talking to ANI, Zeeshan said, "Law is supposed to give the citizenship but the way in which the criteria have been changed is the trouble here."

Disagreeing to the continuous statements put forward by the BJP government that CAA is not a hindrance to the citizenship, the actor further said, Things are clear now, people have now understood the facts, the people and the intention behind are now exposed,.. they can't make a fool out of common people any more."

Zeeshan said it actually the other way round, those people are the ones who are misleading the general public by fluctuating their own statements. "Home minister said something, the next day something else is being said in the Ram leela..people are getting confused., the 'Ranjahanna' actor added.

He further said, "Earlier it was Hindu-Muslim propaganda, but that didn't work, so now you are making it a case between two political parties.. basically you are changing your own statements." When asked about his take on the ongoing JNU Violence, the actor said the members of the alleged political party itself have come out and explained their part in the case and yet no action has been taken.

The actor finally said that people should develop a sense of humanity.
