Mandana
Karimi
has
been
hitting
the
headlines
ever
since
she
participated
in
Kangana
Ranaut's
reality
show
Lock
Upp.
The
actress
had
revealed
a
big
secret
when
she
was
in
the
show.
She
had
said
that
she
was
ditched
by
a
filmmaker
she
was
in
relationship
with
after
she
became
pregnant.
In
an
interview
with
ETimes
TV,
Mandana
cleared
speculation
that
the
director
was
NOT
Anurag
Kashyap.
Mandana
mentioned
that
she
had
just
shared
a
secret
as
the
format
of
the
show
required
it,
and
she
called
it
a
sad
state
of
news
and
headlines
as
people
began
pointing
fingers
at
others.
Regarding
the
secret
of
her
relationship
with
a
filmmaker
that
she
mentioned
in
Lock
Upp,
she
told
ETimes
TV,
"I
never
said
those
words.
Yes,
I
had
a
secret
which
I
shared
on
the
show,
exclusively.
The
format
of
the
show
required
me
to
share
one.
I
didn't
become
an
actress
yesterday.
I
understand
that
an
actress'
life
becomes
a
public
story
as
her
personal
life
dominates
in
the
media.
The
words
get
twisted
while
writing
and
I
have
taken
everything
-
drama
and
headlines
-
with
a
pinch
of
salt.
And
I
don't
know
how
people
have
come
up
with
some
names.
How
can
people
play
with
names?
That's
the
sad
reality
of
social
media
and
news.
The
person
whom
I
had
a
relationship
with,
was
not
my
friend."
When
asked
if
she
doesn't
wish
to
reveal
the
name
of
the
filmmakers,
she
said
that
she
won't
reveal!
She
also
slammed
reports
that
claimed
it
was
Anurag
Kashyap
as
'unethical
and
unfortunate'.
She
clarified
that
Anurag
and
her
are
still
friends.
Mandana
concluded
by
saying,
"I
definitely
want
to
add
here
that
it's
not
the
name
that's
going
around,
which
is
Anurag
Kashyap.
Anurag
was
my
friend
and
we
are
still
friends.
I
have
seen
the
headlines.
It's
not
done.
It's
very
unethical
and
unfortunate.
I
want
to
repeat
again
here,
it's
a
sad
state
of
news
and
headlines
-
picking
names,
putting
words
into
people's
mouths."
