Manisha asks people for kisses
Pooja told the English daily, "When Manisha hugs other contestants and asks for kisses then nobody has a problem. I think people forget duniya hum waise he dekhte hain jaise hum hote hain… duniya hum waise nahi dekhte jaise duniya hai (we can only see that which we are, we are often unable to see the world for what it really is) actually. If people actually think like this, good luck to them.”
No clarification
Pooja added, “I don’t think Mahesh Bhatt or I need to clarify or dignify this." She also reminded everyone that Mahesh also hugged and kissed Abhishek and praised Jad Hadid as the most beautiful man. She further said that Manisha's fans are getting ‘a little hyper’, wondering how would the fans react to Manisha's actions that make ‘lives of other females a little difficult’.
