Post the ‘Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives”, Shalini metamorphosed into a national craze. She outplayed the other wives and caught the nation’s imagination like nobody else. The other wives were gawking at her knockers while she knocked the ball out of the park. It’s not that Shalini Passi wasn’t famous before “Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives”. She has been part of Delhi’s high life and rubbed shoulders with Bollywood’s Czar and Czarinas in Mumbai. King Khan and Gauri are best […] - [ABRAHAM & THAKORE EXITS RELIANCE RETAIL.

No doubts about it at all. But this concerts of his are more than music. It’s an event where people jump in, buy tickets and then sell them at premium for multiple X. In simple terms, people are just waiting to grab tickets and black them to fans, music lovers or whoever that have extra cash to buy them at such exorbitant prices. Diljit comes across as a good soul. I am sure it’s the organizers, SaReGaMa in this case who are letting this ‘blacking’ of tickets go scot-free. Are the multi-city tours […] - [ISN’T IT GREAT WHEN TWO POWERFUL MEN LIVE-IN?](https://fashionscandal.com/2024/09/isnt-it-great-when-two-powerful-men-live-in/):   One of India’s top industrialists has been dating one of India’s top fashion designers for some years now.

On the wee hours of October 22nd, the Ferrari was found banged-up on the Bandra-Worli Sea-link  but surprisingly no media house has covered or followed this case extensively.

The fashion community has been an enabler of his unacceptable views for too long – and its inaction and silence have been deafening. The rapper’s net worth has shrunk to $400 million from a Billion dollars as per the Forbes. When the world is shying away from the toxic rapper […] - [BIGG BOSS 16: SAJID KHAN SHOWING HIS TRUE COLOURS](https://fashionscandal.com/2022/10/bigg-boss-16-sajid-khan-showing-his-true-colours/): It’s been a week since the Bigg Boss 16 took off at a new Bigg Boss House. Contestants are lacklustre and adding to that we have a sour one in form of film director Sajid Khan who was outted by nine women for sexual harassment during the MeTooMovement.  Social Media is rightly offended by Sajid Khan’s presence in Bigg Boss 16. Many a petition and debates have failed to evoke any response from BIGG BOSS 16 broadcaster COLORS and the film industry. It is obvious that Sajid Khan is offered a platform for redemption while the women whom he sexually […] - [ALL THIS BROUHAHA ABOUT RANVEER-DEEPIKA SPLIT](https://fashionscandal.com/2022/09/all-this-brouhaha-about-ranveer-deepika-2/): No doubt Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone are the most talked about couple in Tinseltown but that doesn’t mean you talk random untruth about them.

It was so hot that Ranveer took off his clothes. Eons ago Hollywood’s macho star, Burt Reynolds posed in the buff in very strikingly similar pose. Anyways take a chill-pill guys! - [MUKESH AMBANI LIKELY TO RELOCATE TO ABU DHABI](https://fashionscandal.com/2022/08/mukesh-ambani-likely-to-relocate-to-abu-dhabi/): ANTILLA, the 400,000 square feet Altamount Road residence of Mukesh Ambani is now a ghost-house that only houses the skeleton staff.

Believe you me, you may love the society soiree(s), you may hate them but you just can’t ignore them. I am not trying to be a social zeitgeist but just wondering how would those dramatic entries and greetings now be at the ‘happening parties’ in these CORONA times. ‘Social Distancing’, which is now one metre won’t even allow those stylish air-kisses, forget the peck on the cheek. The warm embrace is a crime now. So will the lovely lunching-ladies and […] - [Annabel's Richard Caring is Hardly Caring](https://fashionscandal.com/2020/04/annabels-richard-caring-is-hardly-caring/): At these tough times of Covid-19 philanthropy comes naturally to big-hearted moguls unlike the London’s hospitality mogul Richard Caring who has pledged to feed thousands of NHS workers and the critically vulnerable by opening up the kitchens of his restaurants – including the world-famous Ivy and private members’ club Annabel’s.

Be it toothpastes, biscuits, cars, pills to cure erectile dysfunction and creams for prevention of vaginal infection, Bollywood stars are endorsing everything. In clothings, B-Towns sell ganji-jaangia to lehengaas and sherwanis. There is nothing wrong in it as nothing sells better than Bollywood in India. But when a designer is showcasing their couture collection, having a Bollywood diva takes the focus away from those deftly crafted ensembles and the noise is all about the Bollywood showstopper.

Is it because the duo spent Malaika’s birthday in Italy? Fashionscandal posted about Malaika (then married to Arbaaz Khan) and Arjun Kapoor (then not a movie star) romance way back in April 2011. I remember many brushed the post as an unimaginable gossip but it wasn’t. It’s probably more in open now. But yes Malaika and Arjun are in love now for almost over 8 years.

It felt like it was the […] - [Gaurav Gupta's Flagship Store - A Fashion Destination](https://fashionscandal.com/2018/10/gaurav-guptas-flagship-store-a-fashion-destination/): A fashion designer dreams for a flagship store and today most of India’s A-List designers have their flagship stores in Delhi and Mumbai. Flagship stores are extension of the fashion designer’s core fashion philosophy. Gaurav Gupta launched his third flagship store dedicated primarily to his couture collection at the most fashionable fashion address of the country – Mehrauli. I have seen fashionable flagship stores but one thing that struck me about GG’s latest store is that it is a seamless extension of his design philosophy. The huge store is a curvaceous maze that we often see embodying Gaurav Gupta’s dramatic […] - [BERI 'Fashionable' Scam](https://fashionscandal.com/2018/09/beri-fashionable-scam/): Navin Beri  is accused of an Economic Offense , which is a fashionable scam for two reasons.

For people in showbiz it does matter a lot more and hence how you turn-out is important. Just spotted this image of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan with her mother at a special movie screening. Ash looks nice in a white  thigh-high-slit Kaaftan dress. Also spotted some images of Sonakshi Sinha and Shraddha Kapoor flashing ‘camel toe’. There is nothing voyeuristic, kinky or weirldy sexy about camel toes . It’s an eyesore rather. It just shows that the lady isn’t wearing proper fitting clothing or apt underwear beneath. Fashion faux-pas needs to be pointed out… - [Baidyanath's Lavish London Bash](https://fashionscandal.com/2018/08/baidyanaths-lavish-london-bash/): Vicram Sharma, popularly known as Vikram Baidyanath celebrates his birthday in London every year.

You’ve heard this week’s catchiest phrase by now, a Twitter-spawned term for someone who exudes the quiet but undeniable confidence. It got nothing to do with the phallus or may I just call it ‘dick. It’s an attitude. A swagger. A vibe!
