When Priyanka Chopra slammed Annu Kapoor’s claim that she refused to do intimate scene with him because he is ‘not good-looking’: ‘I’m very irritated’ |

Priyanka Chopra earned praise for her role in 7 Khoon Maaf, where she portrayed an anglo-Indian woman who causes seven deaths in her quest for love. Annu Kapoor played her fifth husband, Keemat Lal. During the film’s promotions, a war of words between the two actors gained media attention, adding a layer of controversy to the film’s release.
In 2011, Annu claimed Priyanka refused to do intimate scenes with him in 7 Khoon Maaf because he wasn’t good-looking. Reacting to this in an interview with Hindustan Times, Priyanka said she had read his comments and found them irritating and unnecessary.
