Pooja Bedi Comes Out In Support Of Milind Soman's Nude Beach Photo, Calls It An 'Aesthetic Pic'
Reacting to the entire controversy, Pooja Bedi has now come out in support of Soman. She called his nude photo as "aesthetic pic" and said that if nudity is a crime all naga babas should be arrested.
In 1974, Pooja Bedi's mother Protima Bedi had streaked naked on a Mumbai beach. This raised a lot of eyeballs at that point in time, but not as much as Poonam Pandey's "obscene photoshoot."
Pandey was arrested and then released on bail after she reportedly shot for an "obscene" video at a government property in Goa.
After Twitter called out the hypocrisy of those who lauded Milind Soman's nude photo that he posted on his birthday from a beach in Goa and criticised Poonam Pandey, Soman was booked by Goa Police.
