Manisha Koirala controversies

# She broke off her engagement to Crispin Conroy, the Australian Ambassador to Nepal in 2001. “Just yesterday I wanted to marry Crispin and have his babies. Today we’ve drifted apart. The truth is, Crispin wanted to marry this May. When the date came close I developed cold feet. I realised I wasn’t ready for marriage. Like they say, sometimes the man is right but the time isn’t.” Now she has been linked with an Italian businessman.

Manisha Koirala quotes

# “I wish I could be like other actresses who claim they haven’t kissed even at the age of 27!I can’t see myself changing nappies and cooking dinner for too long. I’m too independent to live off a man’s earnings.”
# “I live my life openly, and I don’t have double standards. Bollywood is very male dominated and hypocritical. It makes its women dance semi-nude on screen, but when it comes to life beyond the screen, it expects them to be virgin white. But I refuse to lead a double life. I am what I am on the surface. Yes I party a lot, I have my friends, but that doesn’t make me a coke addict.”
# “I was not serious initially. I thought I would do a couple of films and go back to studies…”
# “I can’t play chulbuli roles all over again. Give me roles like I had in Company and Escape from Taliban and I will happily do them. I came from nowhere, made a mark. I am happy. Looking back there are no regrets.”
# “In Nepal, where I come from, people die for their beliefs. I can never compromise on my principles. I can’t play games to get roles.”
# “I refuse to be a doormat to any man. I will never allow anyone to push me around. I am my own mistress.”
