Back in 2011, something sensational emerged and grabbed headlines. A leaked phone recording allegedly involving Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu and politician Amar Singh emerged and was widely circulated. Since social media platforms like Facebook were already popular by then, even those who didn't know of Amar Singh tuned into the recording.
The conversation contained a flirty exchange with a female voice identifying herself as Bipasha. She talks about meeting him. The recording gained notoriety for a specific line where Amar Singh allegedly says, "It matters between the legs, na?".
The authenticity of the recording, specifically whether the female voice belonged to Bipasha Basu, was never conclusively proven. The Bollywood actress challenged anyone to prove that it was her voice. Amar Singh filed a petition in the Supreme Court against the illegal tapping of his phone conversations. It was believed by many that Amar Singh's political rivals within his own party were behind the leak.
