Controversies

Khan allegedly posed topless for a Norwegian men's magazine VI Menn in 2004.[8] She, however, denied and said that the pictures had been graphically manipulated.[2]

She was deported from India to Norway in February 2005 for allegedly providing false documents to procure her work visa.[9] Negar was deported as she was working while on tourist visa. However, Negar and Sahil claimed that she had married Sahil, and hence was eligible to become an Indian national.[10]
