Denying allegations against her by organisers of India-Pakistan London Fashion Show, actress Bipasha Babu on Thursday said she always holds a high value for self-respect and won't be a victim of "bullying" or "arm twisting".

Bipasha and her husband Karan Singh Grover were slammed by the organisers for lack of professionalism, after the "Jism" actress refused to walk the ramp hours before the show.

Shedding light on the incident, Bipasha, in an open letter, said: "The deal was made with a set of agreed conditions. However, when I landed there for the project as planned, I realised that the organisers hadn't honoured their end of the bargain, in spite of confirming with my manager that they had."

Having agreed to travel on a hospitality deal, Bipasha said that "never was I treated so badly".

"My self-respect holds the highest value and I refuse to be a victim of bullying or arm-twisting. They expected me to hold true to my end of the bargain, whereas they had completely defaulted at their end," she added.

The organizers claimed they suffered a loss of 7,800 pounds, apart from Bipasha's travel expenses, but the actress refuted it.

"Contrary to rumours, as soon as I landed in London, we made our own hotel bookings and I also immediately rebooked our own travel. Being a part of the Bollywood fraternity, I've never experienced such a callous and high-handed treatment before. So instead of creating a scene there, I chose to keep the high ground and backed off from the event."

Admitting that her actions might have hurt some people, she said: "I believe we all have the right to stand by our self-respect and choose to walk away from humiliating situations."

She also said that when terms and conditions aren't met, "it is only natural and professional to opt out of the deal".

Bipasha said celebrities are soft targets for anyone to accuse and then be written about.

"I hope everyone makes a wiser judgment as opposed to believing just about anything that is gets written," she said.

There is always two sides of the story. Not a fan of either of them but it seems like there was a huge fallout between them. The organisers would not just make up their loses nor they would be screaming for no reason, especially for UK organisers. But then again, Bipasha would have been the one leaving with the paycheck so why would she screw up this event? Therefore, a misunderstanding must have happened, leading this grand fallout

"You can not move us with your might, you can not hurt us with your words, you can not affect us with your lies.
We are unstoppable because we are love and light.
We are peaceful because we are the truth.
Don't mistake our kindness for weakness.
Don't mistake our silence for fear.
We choose to look in the mirror because we are beautiful inside out.
We choose to look into our own eyes because our souls are pure.
We sleep well at night because we are free from corruption.
Be with us not against us, let's spread the love and cure negativity.
We are the special children of god, at first we were two, now we are one." Karan Singh Grover

She sounds like she's lying.

Hope the event organisers inform the uk home office and she gets banned from the country as she didn't fulfill the terms of her work visa.

there should be a little truth to the situation. Bips has a history of throwing tantrums so maybe the organizers did face a situation with her as there is no fire without a smoke!
Not a fan of either so just giving a neutral view ...

i dont know wht the truth is but bipasha has always been professional. always. before dating karen and surely after marrying him. I prefer to believe the event organizers messed up and to avoid a blitz they got ahead of the story and bashed the celebrities to keep face and business. I think that is more believable. Why would she back out of something she chose to commit to unless there wasnt a just reason? Afterall shes the one going home with a paycheck. They probably didnt keep up their end of the bargain which is a justified reason to backing out of any event.
