Nargis on Her Love Story with Uday Chopra
In a no holds-barred interview with ETimes in 2021, Nargis said, “Uday and I dated for 5 years and he was the most beautiful human I met in India. I never have said this to the press as people told me to keep my relationship quiet, but I regret that because I should have shouted from the mountain tops that I was with such a beautiful soul. The internet and social media is very fake and the people out there won’t know what the truth is. Most often we idolise certain people who are actually bad behind closed doors.”Her Friendships in the Industry
In the same interview, Nargis Fakhri spoke about her industry friendships, mentioning that she stays in touch with Varun Dhawan, Ileana D’Cruz, and Huma Qureshi, mostly via Instagram. She recalled meeting Ileana for lunch in Texas and going on a hike with Huma followed by lunch in LA.
