Neetu’s ambitious mother pushed her daughter to wear revealing clothes on screen and do more risqué dances. Rishi’s friends reportedly joked to him that his girl friend was showing excessive cleavage on-screen. Rishi replied, “It only seemed so because of the way Neetu’s body was built, and even if her shirt went all the way to her chin, some cleavage would show. Besides, Neetu Singh was the one genuine virgin in Filmistan.” -WTF is wrong with him? Eventhough she was his girfriend the disrespect he had shown towards her by objectifying her is damn appalling.

Don't want to talk bad about a deceased man but it's damn disturbing. Is this gossip even true or we coming to our own conclusions ?

Disagree. On the otherhand he was firmly telling his friends not to judge Neetu's character based on how she's dressed. He was very protective of her long before they became romantically involved. She was only 15-16 years old when they met and he's no cradle snatcher. And her mom was apparently very ambitious and pushy.Reminds me of Babita-Karishma situation. There are so many cautionary tales of young girls being exploited in Bollywood...Rekha,Karishma etc.

When his friends pointed out that his girlfriend was showing excessive cleavage, any sane person would have reprimanded (and most probably cut his connections with them) his friends for the sexist talk but instead he was explaining her body was built that way and called her genuine virgin in filmistan. He was boasting about her being a virgin. It was blatant degradation of her existence by measuring her virtue with her virginity. She is much more than that .She is a working woman with hopes , dreams and opinions. Would he have said the same thing to his friends , if it were his sister. Would his friends even talk about his sister's cleavage? I am so surprised that i have to explain this .

There is a rule book men maintain about how to treat a female gender and men of 21th century even now follow it.

Newsflash. India in the 70s was not at all politically correct. What Rishi obviously meant by the term 'virgin' was that she's a nice,virtuous, 'good-girl'. That term wasn't objectionable at that time period. Why should we apply our modern standards to the past? Rishi was explaining that she had a curvy sexy figure no matter what clothes she wore. So why should she be judged for her figure or the way she's dressed onscreen? Long before he was romantically involved with her, he was very protective about her. So naturally everybody assumed that they must be having an affair and that's the reason for his protectiveness. Why else would a top star take an interest in a young sexy starlet? That he was being chivalrous wouldn't even enter their cynical minds.From the comments it's clear that his friends didn't see her as "bhabhi" and more as Rishi's flavor of the day.Remember that he was dating other women while he was being Neetu's protective friend/big brother. His friends were trash-talking. But Rishi was setting the record clear.
