Move over Ravi, Nagma's dating Manoj Tiwari!

Ravi Kissen, Nagma and Manoj Tiwari

After her liaison with Ravi Kissen ended, Nagma has moved on to the other Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari. Nagma and Manoj have been dating for barely a few weeks.

A reliable source tells us, "Nagma is dating Manoj not only because she is drawn to him but also because she wants to hit Ravi where it hurts. Ravi and Manoj are the biggest names in Bhojpuri cinema and do not share a comfortable relationship. Nagma's being with Manoj will definitely disturb Ravi."

It is learnt that Nagma is very upset with Ravi. The source says, "He spoke many distasteful things about her. Contrary to the popular notion that Ravi ditched her, it was she who called off the relationship. Besides, they had several fights because Ravi introduced Rambha into Bhojpuri films. Rambha replaced Nagma in two films with Ravi in the lead. She felt that Ravi was having an affair with Rambha."

'Nagma's beautiful'

Initially, Nagma did not want to work with Manoj because Ravi and Manoj do not see eye to eye. Nagma and Manoj just did one film together called Raja Thakur, which also starred Shatrughan Sinha. So when did sparks between Nagma and Manoj ignite?

The source says that it all began when Nagma and Manoj started working together recently.

When contacted, Manoj laughs off the affair. He says, "Nagma and I have signed two films together. One is Prakash Jha's chief associate Anil's film and the other is Abhay Sinha's Janam Janam Ka Saath.

If people misconstrue my working with Nagma as an affair, there's nothing I can do about it. At best, I will enjoy the extra attention! But I must say that she is a beautiful girl with a clean heart. There should be no two opinions about that."

Professional affair!

On the other hand, Nagma says she is positively upset with Ravi for badmouthing her. But she quickly adds, "I have nothing against Ravi. But yes, I have decided not to work with him until controversies about us die down. This does not mean I will never work with him again since I we have several projects on the floor. The Bhojpuri industry is small with only two big actors, and at the end of the day we are professionals."

As for her relationship with Manoj, she says, "We are doing more films together now because Ravi is locked up in Bigg Boss's house. Just because I'm working with him doesn't mean there is something going on between us. Please spare me! Both Ravi and Manoj are married men."

Interestingly, Janam Janam Ka Saath also stars Ravi Kissen. The trio will also be seen together in another Bhojpuri film called Tu Hamaar Hou, which is being touted as a remake of Yash Chopra's Darr.

Ravi will play Shah Rukh's obsessive character, while Manoj and Nagma will play on-screen lovers. Seems eerily similar to the of-screen relationship between the trio, no?
