Pakistani actress caught in reality show controversy

 

Veena Malik thrives on controversy.

After the storm over her nude pictures which appeared in the Indian edition of FHM, the Pakistani actress-model is back in the news again.

An Indian Muslim association has issued a fatwa over her new marriage reality TV show on an Indian network.

A fatwa is a verdict or judicial pronouncement on debatable questions of personal or social interest given by an Islamic authority.

The 33-year-old has signed up to participate in a live "Swayamvar" (an ancient Indian practice of choosing a husband from among a list of suitors) and marry on TV, Mumbai daily Mid-Day reported.

She came under fire for taking part in the show after fellow actress Rakhi Sawant claimed that the Veena already lives with boyfriend Ashmit Patel.
