Poonam Pandey is known as one of the boldest actresses in the glamour world. It was in 2013 when Poonam had made her Bollywood debut with the film, Nasha and had hit the headlines for the controversies pertaining to it.

Poonam Pandey was one of the participants in the reality show, Lock Upp and has recently got evicted from the show. In a conversation with ETimes, Poonam talked about losing her sense of smell after suffering a brain haemorrhage during domestic violence. Revealing that she is mentally and physically much stronger now, Poonam said:
"I can’t smell things, I ask people around me about the smell. That’s how I smell things. When the domestic violence happened with me, I lost the sense of smell completely. With brain haemorrhage, it is connected. But honestly, I am mentally and physically much stronger right now."
In one of the episodes of Lock Upp, Poonam had opened up about her life with her estranged husband, Sam Bombay. Talking about the same, she had stated that she was not allowed to sit alone in a room, could not go to the terrace and could not even carry her phone anywhere. She had further stated that Sam had often beaten her and would force her to be with him all the time.

Going further in the conversation, Poonam Pandey had also added that Sam Bombay used to beat her for sleeping with her dogs and pampering them. Talking about her suffering a brain haemorrhage, Poonam had revealed:
"I said fine I stay and just move around. If I love my dog and sleep with them, he would say I love my dogs more than him. What kind of statement is that? Why should I get fuc** beaten up for loving my dogs. Is that a reason to get a brain haemorrhage? Because I have one."
For the unversed, Sam was booked for assaulting Poonam during their honeymoon in 2020.
