Overview
- Manav Manglani told Kunickaa Sadanand in a recorded interview that the 2013 Ibiza images of Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif were shared with the press by someone close to the couple.
- Manglani said he does not know the leaker’s identity, and outlets reporting the remarks have not independently verified the claim.
- He described refusing celebrity requests to delete relationship photos and called his approach “a little manipulative,” asserting such images surface eventually.
- The original publication drew sharp protests at the time, with Katrina Kaif calling it an invasion of privacy in an open letter and Ranbir Kapoor denouncing the act as “disgusting.”
- The episode, often referred to as “Ibiza-gate,” is again fueling discussion about media ethics and privacy, with no new legal action or official investigation reported.
