Actor
Nawazuddin
Siddiqui
recently
issued
an
apology
for
"hurting
the
sentiments"
of
women
whose
names
he
had
mentioned
in
his
memoir,
An
Ordinary
Life,
allegedly
without
their
consent
and
has
decided
to
withdraw
the
book.
The
43-year-old
actor
took
to
Twitter
in
the
wake
of
the
controversy
surrounding
his
autobiography,
co-written
by
Rituparna
Chatterjee,
in
which
he
detailed
his
relationships
and
flings
with
former
Miss
India
Niharika
Singh
and
actor
Sunita
Rajwar.
"I'm
apologising
to
everyone
whose
sentiments
are
hurt
because
of
the
chaos
around
my
memoir
'An
Ordinary
Life'.
I
hereby
regret
and
decide
to
withdraw
my
book,"
he
tweeted.
A
spokesperson
from
the
publisher
Penguin
Rand-om
House
has
confirmed
to
PTI
that
they
were
withdrawing
the
book.
The
critically-acclaimed
actor
drew
a
lot
of
flak
for
revealing
personal
details
about
his
"passionate"
affair
with
his
Miss
Lovely
co-star
Niharika.
Excerpts
from
the
book
started
doing
the
rounds
on
October
23
and
Niharika
issued
a
statement
a
day
later
slamming
Nawaz
for
"exploiting
and
disrespecting"
a
woman
to
sell
his
autobiography.
While
Rajwar
took
to
Facebook
to
blast
the
actor
for
spreading
lies
and
claiming
that
she
dumped
him
for
his
"poor
status".
"I
did
not
dump
you
for
your
poor
status
but
for
your
poor
thinking,"
Rajwar
said.
