Bollywood actress Nargis Fakhri was slowly returning to the limelight post her alleged split with Uday Chopra, but the latest reports suggest that the "Housefull 3" actress has packed her bags and left India forever.
In May, there were reports that Nargis had left the Indian film industry after boyfriend Uday refused to marry her. Her spokesperson denied all the reports, but her absence during the promotions of "Azhar" and "Housefull 3" added fuel to fire.
"Nargis has been extremely overworked working on three films simultaneously over the past year. For someone who is used to doing one film at a time, this was quite a bit for Nargis. In addition, she has been unwell right through the 'Azhar' promotions with multiple injuries — torn hamstring, anterior knee ligament thinning and mild socket dislocation along with burning of the stomach lining due to lead and arsenic poisoning," her spokesperson told IANS.
After a small gap, she returned to the spotlight, but now Filmfare reports that Nargis has left India and is unlikely to come back to the country. The entertainment portal quoting sources also reported that she is unlikely to work in Bollywood again. Nargis has gone back to the U.S. to be with her family and friends.
