Manisha Koirala is unhappy about the way some of her sexually explicit scenes in film Tum are being used to promote the movie.
Manisha seems a bit prone to the controversies regarding sexually revealing scenes. We know how the actress took director Shashilal Nair to court for such explicit scenes in Ek Chhoti Si Love Story.
And now, the actress has landed in another controversy. It happened that her Nigerian boyfriend Cecil Antony called ‘Tum’s publicity person Alok Mathur and abused him for spreading Manisha’s hot revealing photographs to the media for movie’s pre-release publicity. Cecil even warned and threatened Mathur with serious consequences if he didn’t stop using Manisha’s hot scenes to promote the movie.
The promotional trailers and the stills of Tum show Manisha locked in sex scenes with lead actors Rajat Kapoor and Karan Nath.
It is learnt that Mathur has lodged a complaint against Anthony in the Oshiwara police station. Meanwhile, Manisha is currently out of the country.
