The talented and multifaceted star Khushboo who started her career in films as a child artist, then as a heroine, and now portraying character roles with great élan, is also popular in several TV programmes also. Unfortunately, she has been in the midst of several controversies. Last year, several cases were filed against her in several courts in Tamil Nadu against her personal remarks made to India Today magazine on premarital sex. Then the British magazine Maxim published her morphed picture wearing a two piece bikini in their Indian edition. She objected to this intrusion on her privacy, and the publishers of the magazine offered to print an apology in their next issue. The issue containing “her” morphed photograph was seized from the police and withdrawn from circulation. Since then, the next issue of Maxim has been released, and it does not contain the promised apology. So now Khushboo has filed a legal notice to the publishers of Maxim asking for Rupees three crores in damages for publishing her morphed image in a two piece bikini which has caused loss of reputation and damage to her, and by which her image was lowered in society. The publisher of Maxim has been given two weeks time to reply. The release of Khushboo’s June R. was delayed last year because of the various protests and cases against her. Now that June R. has been released, this new controversy has arisen; this time, she is filing a case against the publisher. Let us hope that she comes out of this controversy and that this negative publicity converts into more people going to see June R.!
