The Pakistan born 32-year-old Bollywood star Mahira Khan was the center of controversy this week, after pictures uploaded on social media of her outside a New York restaurant, wearing a Marilyn Monroe inspired backless dress and smoking a fag with actor and rumored real life boyfriend, Ranbir Kapoor – the snaps have only just come to light now and have led to accusations from some fans and conservative Islamic groups that Mahira, who is Muslim, has brought her faith into disrepute and sold out her country. Mahira was already a massive star back home, having starred in a string of hit TV serials and films, including Bol, before becoming one of the few actors from Pakistan to successfully cross over into Bollywood after starring opposite My Name is Khan legend Shah Rukh Khan in 2016 film Raees.
