Bollywood is not only known for its movies and stars, but also for some very strange and unexpected controversies. Over the years, many actors have been involved in stories that were shocking, funny, or just plain weird.
Here are three of the weirdest controversies in Bollywood that had people talking for a long time.
- When Rakhi Sawant Married a Ghost
Rakhi Sawant is known for her bold style and attention-grabbing actions. But in 2009, she surprised everyone by saying she was in love with a “spirit” and even claimed to be married to it. This was one of the strangest things Bollywood fans had ever heard.
Rakhi told the media that a ghost followed her and she felt connected to it. She even performed some religious rituals to get rid of the ghost. People didn’t know if she was serious or just doing it for publicity. Whatever the reason, it became one of the weirdest Bollywood controversies.
- Mallika Sherawat and the Kissing Scene Protest
Actress Mallika Sherawat became famous after her bold roles in the early 2000s. One of her kissing scenes in the movie Khwahish (2003) caused a huge drama. The movie had 17 kisses, and this led to protests in many parts of India.
People even burned her posters and shouted against her in public. But what made it weird was that kissing scenes by male actors had already happened in Bollywood before, yet Mallika was the only one being targeted.
This showed how unfair and strange the reactions were. The issue stayed in the news for a long time and became a topic of jokes and debates.
- Amitabh Bachchan Declared Himself “Farmer” to Buy Land
One of the biggest superstars of India, Amitabh Bachchan, got involved in a strange controversy when he bought land in Uttar Pradesh. According to Indian law, only farmers can buy certain pieces of agricultural land. So, Big B declared himself a “farmer” to buy the land.
This raised many eyebrows. People asked how a film actor who never farmed a day in his life could claim to be a farmer. The case even went to court, and there was a lot of media attention. Though the issue was later settled, it was still quite funny and unusual to see a famous actor stuck in such a strange legal problem.
