Dehradun: Bollywood sensation Madhuri Dixit Nene is on a roll. Films, reality shows, endorsements – she has got it all. Â Looks like her decision of coming back to India for good has paid off.
She did films like ‘Dedh Ishqiya’ and ‘Gulaab Gang’, a reality show like ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6’ and endorsements like ‘Bush Foods Basmati Rice’, ‘Expert Detergent Bar’, ‘Comfort Liquid Conditioner’, ‘Olay’, ‘Emami’, ‘Oral – B’ and ‘Taj Mahal Tea’, ‘Dabur Chyawanprash’ etc.
But according to latest buzz, the actress seems to have landed in a soup for endorsing Maggi with the Haridwar Food and Drug Administration on Friday, serving a notice to her on the claims made in the advertisement.
The notice seeks a report from the actress within 15 days on claims made in the advertisement regarding the nutrition value of the ‘2-minute noodles’, an official of Haridwar Food and Drug Administration said.
Maggi recently came under the scanner after samples collected by Uttar Pradesh Food Safety and Drug Administration were reported to be containing Mono Sodium Glutamate (MSG) and lead more than the permissible limits.
Nestle India was asked to withdraw a batch of the popular snack from the market by the authorities in Uttar Pradesh recently.
Madhuri has been asked to explain how Maggi is good for health and the basis of making the claims. If the actress fails to respond to the notice within the stipulated time frame, a case could be registered against her, Food Security Officer Mahimanand Joshi said.
