When This Popular Actor Found Himself In A Soup Due To His 'Hot Jalebi' Remark About Anushka Shetty

By Staff

In 2015, actress Anushka Shetty tried experimenting with her onscreen image when she acted in Size Zero and added a new dimension to her career. The movie, directed by Prakash Kovelamudi, featured the 'Lady Superstar' in the role of an overweight young woman and proved that she is not afraid to take a risk. While Size Zero failed to impress critics, it grabbed plenty of attention prior to its release for a shocking reason. While speaking at its audio launch, comedian Ali made a few raunchy remarks about Anushka which left those in attendance fuming.

"Sometime back you had asked the other girl (Sonal Chauhan) to slap her thighs. However, she has no thighs. Anushka has really remarkable thighs. Ever since I saw her in Billa (where Anushka appeared in a bikini), I became her fan."

"Though I took it as part of entertainment, I heard that it hurt some people. I am sorry for it," he told Deccan Chronicle.
