Mumbai: It wasn't me! At least that’s what actress Tanushree Dutta is saying about the bold scenes in her latest film Raqeeb. So, we decided to get to the bottom of the story.

“What kind of image is she talking about? She doesn’t have the image of mother India. She has never shied away from portraying sexy roles in all her previous movies. But yes, it’s true, our film is very bold,” producer of Raqeeb, Raj Kanwar said.

Now, that’s what the producer is saying and if you missed out the most important word there, check it out again.

“Tanushree's role is very bold. No heroine has done something like this before. The film is a murder mystery,” Kanwar said.

Yes, it’s certainly bold and that’s what Tanushree is angry about. She has sent a letter to the film's producer claiming that she hasn’t done anything that can be termed as "bold" according to Bollywood norms. So, she's not promoting the film.

“I have not used any body double or look alike to shoot any scenes in the film. If she can prove it, am ready to do anything for her,” Kanwar said.

Well, audiences have seen Tanushree's thunder thighs and skin show in most of her previous films. So, what’s new?

We wonder if it’s just a last minute controversy especially made to create a buzz about the film, which releases this week.
