Bollywood actresses more vulgar than bar dancers?

Samajwadi Party leaders court controversy, say Bollywood heroines more vulgar than Mumbai bar dancers

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav may have applauded Bollywood actresses Katrina Kaif and Nargis Fakhri for their performances in Lucknow earlier this year, but his partymen are far from impressed with the screen divas.

A Samajwadi Party leader triggered an unsavoury row on Sunday when he called "Bollywood heroines more vulgar than Mumbai's bar dancers".

Addressing a gathering of Qureshi community in Etawah, SP's Rajya Sabha MP Ram Gopal Yadav said: "It is unfortunate that the Congress government in Maharashtra is trying to ban bar dancers in the name of checking obscenity. The fact is that Bollywood heroines are involved in spreading vulgarity 100 times more than bar dancers. The clothes of film heroines embarrass us. Bar dancers are much better than them."

If his statement was not offensive enough, another SP MP Naresh Agrawal supported his views on Monday saying: "Whatever he (Yadav) has said is true. The bar dancers are doing such things for survival. But Bollywood heroines are doing it for fun."

The comments have drawn flak from Opposition leaders as well as the film fraternity. Bollywood actor-turned Congress MP Raj Babbar reminded the leaders that Jaya Bachchan, an SP MP, belongs to film industry only. "Ram Gopal should not forget that there is a woman MP of his party who hails from Bollywood," he said.

Reacting sharply to the statement, film actress Nagma said: "It sounds absurd that a politician is speaking in such a language. He forgot that entertainment is an old industry and people respect film actresses."
