Himani Shivpuri recalls Alok Nath was once deplaned for his behaviour; admits actor is ‘sanskari’ when not drinking: ‘His wife kept asking…’

As a lifestyle expert with years of experience in the entertainment industry, I must say that the recent revelations about Alok Nath, once a beloved figure in Indian cinema, are deeply concerning. The accounts of his behavior, as shared by Himani Shivpuri and several other women, paint a troubling picture.

He suggested, “Such incidents might have occurred, but someone else would have been responsible. Frankly, I’d rather not discuss it further.
