| Controversies | • One of the spookiest kissing sequences ever was hers with actor Vinod Khanna, who was 20 years her senior, in the 1988 movie Dayavan. She has acknowledged that she should have walked away from the entire scene. • She used to tout Maggie’s product as being extremely healthful for children. But she received harsh criticism for it following the Maggie controversy (MSG in high amounts) in 2015. Amitabh Bachchan, Madhuri, and Preity Zinta were ordered by a district court to file a police report (FIR) in response to this. • According to rumours, she demanded a significant sum of money—between 9 and 10 crores (INR)—in 2012 to serve as the brand ambassador of Maharashtra.
