Just a tiff

Bollywood cat fights that grabbed eyeballs this year

Throughout Bollywood’s illustrious history, the industry has witnessed its fair share of dramatic clashes between leading ladies. These highly publicized conflicts not only captivated audiences but also became fodder for tabloids and gossip columns. However, despite the drama, many of these actresses have moved past their differences and continued to thrive in their careers, proving that in Bollywood, talent ultimately prevails over feuds. Here’s taking a look at some popular cat fights that grabbed eyeballs.

Taapsee Pannu and Kangana Ranaut

Kangana Ranaut criticized Taapsee Pannu, labeling her as a cheaper imitation of herself, citing similarities in their curly hair and fashion choices. Pannu faced harsh remarks from Ranaut, who accused her of copying her style. Ranaut’s comments sparked controversy, highlighting tensions between the two actresses in the industry.

Jaya Bachchan and Moushmi Chatterjee

Moushmi Chatterjee responded candidly to comparisons with Jaya Bachchan, asserting her superiority over the veteran actress. The controversy ensued after Chatterjee declined to provide photographs to the paparazzi. She openly expressed her belief that she surpassed Bachchan in various aspects.

Zeenat Aman and Mumtaz

Zeenat Aman and Mumtaz made headlines for their feud where they were seen slamming each other’s comments. Mumtaz had reportedly criticised Zeenat’s social media post where she was seen promoting live-in relationships. Later, this received strong reaction from Zeenat who stated that everyone is entitled to have their own opinion.

When Bombay Times contacted Mumtaz regarding the allegations, she refuted making any personal comments about Zeenat. Expressing her distress over the allegations, she emphasized that the reports were false and that she had never spoken in such a manner. She sought forgiveness from Zeenat for any misunderstanding caused.

Kareena Kapoor and Ameesha Patel

The animosity between these talented actresses has its roots in the early stages of their careers, stemming from the blockbuster film ‘Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai.’ Initially offered to Kareena Kapoor, disagreements led her to exit the project, paving the way for Ameesha Patel’s debut, which became a major success and fueled the feud.

Karisma Kapoor and Raveena Tandon

In an interview, Raveena disclosed that director Rajkumar Santoshi, along with Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, grew weary of her ongoing feud with Karisma Kapoor. Recalling a scene in ‘Andaz Apna Apna,’ where they were tied to a pillar, Santoshi insisted they reconcile before being untied. Despite the past tension, Karisma and Raveena have reconciled, with their daughters playing a key role in reuniting them.

On one of the early episodes of Koffee With Karan, Farah Khan had also called Raveena and Karisma’s feud ‘the nastiest catfight’ she has ever witnessed.
