As 2022 comes to an end, lets take you through all the shocking Bollywood controversies of the year.
We're days away from entering 2023. Let's take you back to all the bizarre and shocking Bollywood controversies of 2022 that created a huge stir.
1. Ranveer Singh And His Nude Photoshoot
The Padmaavat actor, known for his unconventional dressing sense was seen stripping it all out, as he posed naked for Paper Magazine's cover shoot. Laying bare naked, flaunting his ripped body, Ranveer Singh took the internet by storm once the pictures were out. From mainstream news channels to media houses, everyone was talking about his bold shoot. While many criticized him, many Bollywood actors like Vidya Balan, Alia Bhatt, Ayushmann Khurrana, and more came in support of Ranveer.
2. Boycott Bollywood Trend
With nepotism being the crux of this matter, Bollywood fans and viewers were agitated with the kind of treatment outsiders received when they tried to pave their way in the Hindi film industry. And that's how the #BoycottBollywood trend started. Movies with big budgets like Laal Singh Chaddha, Vikram Vedha, Dhaakad, Dobaara, and more were highly affected as movie lovers chose sensible OTT content over theatrical releases.While Laal Singh Chaddha became a victim of the infamous trend of Kareena Kapoor Khan's comment on criticizing the audience, Taapsee Pannu's arrogant behavior with the paparazzi created another stir which resulted in her movie being a disaster at the box office.
3. Ranbir Kapoor And Alia Bhatt Banned From Entering A Temple In Ujjain
We all remember the hype Brahmastra Part 1: Shiva created right before its release. A part of the team's strategy was to visit several renowned temples across the country and greet their fans. The Boycott Bollywood trend forced people to dig into old content and controversies of the actors and use it against them to disrupt their upcoming releases. One such incident happened with Brahamstra stars Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, who refrained from entering a temple in Ujjain.The reason for this was an old video doing rounds on the internet about Ranbir Kapoor admitting to eating and relishing beef. This angered the Hindu community of Ujjain and what happened next was history.
4. Ajay Devgn And Kiccha Sudeep Twitter War
The Bollywood superstar and South sensation got into a massive verbal war on Twitter over the language barrier over Hindi being the national language of India. When Kiccha Sudeep denied the same, Ajay Devgn asked him why would he dub all his South blockbusters in Hindi, after the former stated that it cannot be called the national language anymore.
