Controversies / Disputes Involving Amrapali Dubey
- In September 2025, Amrapali commented on an incident where fellow actor Pawan Singh allegedly touched Anjali Raghav inappropriately on stage (waist without consent) during a show in Lucknow. Amrapali said the behavior was “disgraced” and that such incidents should be reported immediately to the authorities.
- Also in September 2025, she revealed that she had tried to stop Pawan Singh’s sudden wedding because she believed another actress, Akshara Singh, was deeply in love with him. She claimed the wedding came as a surprise to many, including people close to them.
- There has been a rumor about Amrapali Dubey converting to Islam, triggered by a viral video showing her wearing a hijab. She clarified (or media investigations suggest) that this was linked to her role in a film (“Roza”) and not a personal conversion.
- In 2019, she issued a warning to fans about a fake Instagram account impersonating her. While this isn’t a dispute with another public figure, it’s a social‑media controversy/risk.
