New Delhi: We are nearing the end of the year 2023. The year has unsurprisingly been monumental for Bollywood. When it comes to films, some have become huge hits like 'Jawan' and 'Gadar 2', but others, like 'Selfiee' and 'UT 69', have been a flop. This year has also seen a slew of controversial incidents that have kept Bollywood stars in the news. So, we take a look back at the most controversial topics involving Bollywood in 2023.

Here is everything that made controversy in the entertainment industry in 2023:

Alia Bhatt's 'Wipe That Off' Remark

The video in which Alia Bhatt said that Ranbir Kapoor tells her to "wipe hatt off" whenever she wore lipstick caused quite a stir. Following Alia's comments, Ranbir was widely criticised for his controlling behaviour, with many claiming that the actor is a 'red flag'.

Manoj Muntashir’s Dialogues In ‘Adipurush’

'Adipurush' is an adaptation of the epic The Ramayana, directed by Om Raut. The dialogue writer Manoj Muntashir faced harsh criticism from mythological lovers and movie buffs alike.  Many people were outraged by the dialogue in the film. Some even boycotted the film because of its cheap dialogue and poor visual effects.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur's Kissing Scene

Kangana Ranaut's film 'Tiku Weds Sheru' features Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Avneet Kaur as a pair. The teaser showed Nawazuddin, 49, and Avneet, 21, sharing passionate kisses. Viewers were not pleased with the scene and criticised the actors and makers for showcasing intimate scenes between actors with a huge age gap. The makers then defended the sequence by saying the actors were just acting out a fictional scenario.

Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh's ‘Koffee With Karan’ Episode

During an episode of ‘Koffee With Karan Season 8’, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone discussed their relationship in detail. Deepika said that, because of her previous failed relationships, she had originally wished to remain single. She spoke about her casual relationship with Ranveer. She said she didn't commit until he asked her to be his wife. 

According to Deepika, "Even if we were technically allowed to see other people, we would just keep coming back to each other." Trolls attacked the actress for making such a statement. Some even went to such lengths to humiliate and slut shame her.

Rashmika Mandanna's Deepfake Video

In addition to film-related controversies, the dark side of technology was brought to light this year. A number of famous people's AI deepfake videos went viral, shocking both their followers and themselves. Rashmika Mandanna was the first prominent figure in the film industry to be impacted by the misuse of AI.
