Masaba Gupta hails Bipasha Basu, takes a dig at Mrunal Thakur's: A practical reader guide

Actor Bipasha Basu stunned one and all with her new pictures for a cover shoot for Elle India. The actor has now received a shoutout from fashion designer Masaba Gupta, who praised her beauty and muscular build.

In the clip, Mrunal had called Bipasha Basu “manly with muscles”, claiming she is “better” than her.

In her praise, Masaba refered to a previous comment made by actor Mrunal Thakur that had caused an internet storm last year.

“19-year-old me as a teenager said many silly things. I didn’t always understand the weight of my voice or how much words, even in jest, could hurt. But it did, and for that I am deeply sorry. My intent was never to body-shame anyone. It was playful banter in an interview, that went too far. But I understand how it came across, and I truly wish I had chosen my words differently. Bipasha was last seen in the web series Dangerous. Written by Vikram Bhatt and directed by Bhushan Patel, the series marked her OTT debut alongside Karan Singh Grover. The show also featured Sonali Raut, Natasha Suri, Suyyash Rai and Nitin Arora in key roles and is available to watch on MX Player. The actress has been away from films for quite some time now.

Mrunal later wrote a post on Instagram stories, expressing regret at what was said. With time, I’ve grown to appreciate that beauty comes in every form, and that’s something I truly value now,” she said.
