However, Zareen Khan expressed her lack of clarity on the matter and said that there was no truth to the allegations. The news portal quoted her saying, “I’m sure there is no truth to this. I’m surprised too and am checking with my lawyer. Only then will I be able to give you some clarity”.

Zareen Khan had initially claimed that she had been misled by the organisers, who had allegedly falsely represented that the event would be attended by Bengal’s chief minister and several prominent ministers.

Meanwhile, Zareen Khan has been compared with Katrina Kaif several times. She revealed in one of her Instagram session that the comparisons made between her and Katrina Kaif in her early days in Bollywood had a negative impact on her career.

As she didn’t come from a filmy background, Zareen stated that she was initially happy being compared to Katrina, whom she admired for her beauty. However, she regretted that the film industry did not give her the opportunity to showcase her individuality. She mentioned, “So, when I entered this industry, I was literally like a lost child since I don’t come from a filmy background, so it made me feel very happy being compared to Katrina as i was her fan too and found her really pretty. But it backfired on my career as the people of this industry didn’t give me a chance to prove my individuality (sic).”
