Controversy

They dated each other but had a very sour end, and rumour has it that she threw him out of her house after they an ugly fight. In an interview with a web portal, Pavitra had called Paras Chhabra a piece of 's**t, who survives on his girlfriend's money'. And, also said that she cannot be linked to a "struggler". However, Paras Chhabra, in an interview with ETimes TV gave it back and said, "Pavitra has rightly said that Paras was her mistake because a married woman can’t be dating and fooling me. It was alarming to know this when her husband messaged me and said you both could be with each other as much as you want but only after my divorce with her. I confronted her and she agreed, then I got to know one after other shocking revelations about her. I don't want to open my mouth right now. I could be explosive right now, but time will tell and it will show during her stint in BB. If I open my mouth things can go against her and it won't be good. She hid about her marriage from me."(Photo: Instagram)
