Bhojpuri cinema, popular yet often in the headlines for the wrong reasons, has seen several stormy episodes. Here’s a quick look at the biggest ones.
Trisha Kar Madhu’s private MMS leak
In August 2021 a private video allegedly showing Trisha Kar Madhu with her boyfriend surfaced online. She says a roommate recorded it without her consent, calling it sabotage after she turned down certain demands. The clip sparked massive trolling. Trisha appealed to fans to delete it, and she highlighted the poor treatment of women in the industry. Legal battles are still ongoing.
Akshara Singh accuses Pawan Singh of abuse
Rumours of a romance between Akshara Singh and Pawan Singh floated after Pawan’s first wife died in 2014. That connection broke up around 2018‑19 and turned ugly. Akshara filed an FIR in 2019 claiming physical abuse, threats of death, forced signing of a “contractual relationship” and the circulation of obscene photos and videos when she tried to end things. She also said Pawan demanded she touch his feet before stage performances and tried to control her career. Pawan’s second wife, Jyoti, later claimed Akshara was three months pregnant by him. Pawan has denied deep involvement, saying he never said “I love you” to anyone and stays silent on the specifics. In 2026 Akshara again slammed double standards, pointing out Pawan dates many women without scrutiny while she is constantly questioned about her past. She says her career suffered and she wants no further association.
Pawan Singh’s second wife Jyoti alleges torture
Jyoti Singh married Pawan in 2018 after his first wife’s suicide. Their marriage soured, leading to divorce filings around 2022. In 2025 the feud went public, with court cases in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh over maintenance and alimony. Jyoti accuses Pawan of giving her abortion pills twice, physical and mental torture, neglect and infidelity. The disputes remain unresolved.
Ravi Kishan’s secret marriage claim
Another buzz‑worthy story involves actor Ravi Kishan. Reports surfaced claiming he secretly married a second wife, sparking speculation across social media. Details are still murky and no official confirmation has emerged yet.
Akanksha Dubey’s mysterious death
The industry also mourned the sudden death of actress Akanksha Dubey. Her demise was labelled mysterious, with rumours ranging from foul play to health issues. No conclusive investigation findings have been shared publicly.
These episodes, ranging from leaked private footage to serious abuse allegations and secret marriage rumours, keep the Bhojpuri film world in a constant state of controversy. The pattern shows personal disputes spilling onto public platforms, often dragging legal systems into the mix.
