Bigg Boss OTT: When Mahesh Bhatt's Lip-Kiss With Daughter Pooja Bhatt & Desire To Marry Her Caused An Uproar
Bigg Boss OTT Pooja Bhatt: Apart from his exceptional movies, Bollywood director and producer Mahesh Bhatt has always been involved in controversy for his bold statements and questionable way of leading life. The Bhatt family has been the centre of gossip in Tinseltown.
One such controversy that broke loose was when Mahesh Bhatt shared a lip kiss with his daughter Pooja Bhatt for a magazine cover. The father-daughter duo back in the 80s appeared for a magazine cover shoot, where both shared a lip-lock moment when India was still not a progressive society.
Mahesh Bhatt and Pooja Bhatt's lip-kiss controversy
Let us tell you that Pooja Bhatt is the daughter of Mahesh and his first wife, Kiran. Pooja's life is no less controversial. Her choice of clothes and bold films used to raise eyebrows back in the day. But it was her lip kiss with her father, Mahesh Bhatt, that caused an uproar and grabbed eyeballs.
The magazine shoot in question is from the 80s when Pooja, who was in her early twenties, appeared on a leading magazine cover page with her dad and shared a lip-lock. In the photo, Pooja is seen sitting on Mahesh's lap and kissing each other on the lips.
When the magazine was published, the father-daughter duo left everyone in shock, and their bold attempt invited a lot of hatred from the public.
After much furor in the media, Mahesh Bhatt had to call a press conference to address the issue. However, his bold statement further aggravated the situation by saying: "If Pooja had not been my daughter, I would have married her."
Speaking of Pooja Bhatt, she is currently seen on Bigg Boss OTT. She made her digital debut with the 2021 Netflix series Bombay Begums and was last seen in Chup: Revenge Of The Artist. Pooja made her Bollywood debut with Daddy in 1989.
