Huma Qureshi on Rishi Kapoor’s ‘fat’ joke: Take a chill pill yaar!
Thu, July 30, 2015 12:01pm IST by Pooja Nayak
And the Badlapur actress has cleared the whole fuss around being called ‘fat’…
It was Huma Qureshi’s birthday a couple of days back. And obviously, Bollywood was kind enough to make it special by pouring in loving wishes for her on Twitter. Rishi Kapoor too didn’t hesitate and tweeted ‘Happy Birthday’ to Ms Qureshi. But he found himself in major trouble for adding a picture to his tweet which read, “The more you weigh, the harder you are to kidnap. Stay safe. Eat cake!”
