#5  The actress has said she had received threats to her life from certain groups.

Most of those groups are directed by decrepit old geezers in turbans, quite repressed and jealous, whose wives long ago gave up the daily ritual of shaving of their own mustaches and beards...

Any of the turbanites who'd consider attacking her might feel the rath of angry fans, most of whom are Hindu, not Moslem.
