Kabir Bedi lashes out at daughter Pooja for calling new wife 'wicked witch'

MUMBAI: Actor Kabir Bedi has lashed out at daughter Pooja Bedi for calling his newly married wife "wicked and evil", saying he is "deeply disappointed" with the comments.

Bedi, who tied the knot for the fourth time with Parveen Dusanj, a social researcher from UK, on his 70th birthday, took to Twitter to share his displeasure over the unwelcoming remarks made by Pooja.



After Kabir married Parveen Dusanj on January 15, in a private affair, Pooja took onto social media to make, what many would call, a shocking post. Later on, she lashed out at her step-mother, who is younger than her. She tweeted, "Every fairy tale has a wicked witch or an evil step~mother! Mine just arrived! @iKabirBedi just married @parveendusanj." [sic]


However, she later deleted her post and wished her father the best for his 4th marriage. However, Kabir didn't take this too lightly and took to Twitter to express his disappointment. He tweeted, "DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED by venomous comments by my daughter Pooja against @parveendusanj just after we married. NO, excuse for bad behaviour." [sic]

Bedi's first marriage was to model-turned-Odissi dancer Protima, with whom he had two children Pooja and Siddharth.
He later married British-born fashion designer Susan Humphreys and the couple had son Adam. Bedi divorced Humphreys and tied the knot with TV and radio presenter Nikki Bedi. They had no children and divorced in 2005.
Bedi and daughter Pooja have been estranged for over a year. Pooja had apparently asked father Kabir and his partner Parveen to move out of the house that she said belonged to her mother, Protima after some dispute.
