Nana is always known to be very different from other Bollywood actors, even as a person and a while ago, in an interview, Dimple had called him 'obnoxious', however, praised his acting skills and talent. As she called him 'obnoxious', she was asked if she meant it in a good way or bad way. Reacting to it, she had said during a chat with NDTV, "In a good way, and a bad way. As far as his talent goes, there's no match to him. He is an extremely talented man. When I see talent like him, sau khoon bhi maaf hai. Sab kuch maaf hai. Meri jaan bhi lelo (A hundred murders, everything is forgiven. In fact, take my life too). That's the effect he has on me. But, as a person, with me, he has been very, very nice, kind, and a good friend. But I have also seen his terrible side…the dark side. We all have a dark side which is nicely and safely kept aside."

50 Cent Echoes 'Snitch' Allegations Against Demetrius 'Big Meech' Flenory, Flenory Responds
50 Cent has continued to wage war against Demetrius 'Big Meech' Flenory's street credibility, as the rapper-turned-film and TV exec has doubled down on allegations that Flenory 'snitched' on a former business associate. On Monday (Feb. 10), Fif responded to a rebuttal by Flenory regarding him being a 'rat,' sharing the Black Mafia founder's statement with his own social media followers. In the clip, Meech refutes any allegations of him cooperating with law enforcement, adding that he didn't plan on responding to Fif, but has chosen to for his 'loved ones, friends, and family.' He also accused 50 of attempting to 'trick [him] off the streets,' reiterating that he 'never folded, never told — never will. Death before dishonor, always.' In the same post, the Queens. N.Y. native mocked Flenory's message, accusing him of 'tricking' incarcerated drug kingpin Dionne 'Cuffy' Gatling out of his freedom through Flenory's dealings with known federal informant Tammy Cowins. Cowins, a producer of BMF, 50 Cent's hit Starz series based on the rise and fall of Flenory's criminal empire, previously worked with Flenory on business endeavors such as his foray into the world of TV and film, securing the rights to Flenory's life story at one point in time. 'You told Tammy to tell, bi**h,' Fif said, referring to claims that Flenory participated in 'third-party cooperation,' which is when someone gives incriminating information to an informant, who then uses that information in their own cooperatiog with law enforcement. The Get Rich or Die Tryin' creator also warned that multiple artists billed to appear at Meech's 'Welcome Back' concert may not be present, claiming that Flenory himself won't be able to attend due to the conditions of his release. 'Y'all gon' be disappointed if Lil Baby don't show up? When Skilla [Baby] don't show up? When [Icewear] Vezzo don't show up? When all these muthafuckas don't show up?' he said. '[Meech] can't even go! He on house arrest.' Accusing Flenory of reading off a teleprompter, 50 would reiterate his sentiments in the post's caption, referring to Meech as 'Big Screech' and continuing to foreshadow disappointment for those who choose to purchase tickets to the Detroit native's 'Welcome Back' concert. In a subsequent post, the 49-year-old continued to taunt Flenory, mocking the former drug kingpin's delivery of his statement and accusing him of having a social media manager. Tensions between 50 and Flenory seemingly began after Flenory was seen in a clip alongside Rick Ross promoting Meech's upcoming 'Welcome Back' concert, which is scheduled for Thursday (Feb. 13), in Miami. Ross, one of Fif's staunchest rivals, announced that he will perform 'B.M.F.,' his hit single inspired by Flenory, live in front of the street legend for the first time.
