One of the most powerful actors of Bollywood’s current generation, Taapsee Pannu, needs no introduction. The actress is known not only for her unparallel acting chops but also for her unapologetic opinions, that seldom make her fall prey to controversies and troubles. And now, it seems her latest fashion statement has landed her at the helm of serious legal trouble.
For the recent ramp walk at the Lakme Fashion Week, Taapsee turned showstopper for the designer, Monisha Jaising. Revealing a closer look into her OOTD for the same, the actress took to her IG handle and dropped a stunning picture of herself in a red-hued, heavily embellished sleeveless gown that featured a deep plunging neckline. She completed her look with open tresses, subtle makeup and a stunning gold neckpiece from Reliance Jewels that featured an intricately carved miniature of Goddess Lakshmi.

However, things turned even more ugly when an MLA from Indore filed an FIR against the actress for allegedly hurting religious sentiments by wearing a Goddess Lakshmi pendant over a revealing outfit at the Lakme Fashion Week. The police will be taking necessary actions shortly.

Apart from her professional successes, her personal life is something that the actress prefers to keep out of the limelight. Once in an interview with Pinkvilla a year back, the actress opened up on her marriage plans and revealed that she has never hidden any of her past relationships from her parents. Moreover, she also mentioned why it is always her prime importance to let her parents be aware of what exactly goes on in her personal life.
A few days back, in an interview with The Lallantop, Taapsee opened up about the initial struggling phase of her modelling career and revealed some dark secrets about the Miss India pageants. She revealed how the actress had witnessed many other contestants were made to sign a contract that they would supply the pageant organizers with 30 per cent of their earnings once they began to earn.
