Too big for her shoes: Mallika Sherawat successfully adds herself to the list. Apparently, for her item number in Bin Bulaye Baraati, she refused to shoot with actors like Gulshan Grover, Om Puri, Rajpal Yadav and Johny Lever even though, they weren’t to dance with her and were only to watch her. Eventually, the actors shot separately, which was later added to the song. She was shown the door, when she threw tantrums on the sets of reality show Chak Dhoom Dhoom.

Not without my photographer: Katrina Kaif once threw her starry tantrums when  shooting for Bang Bang. Apparently, while doing some shots for the promotion of the film, Katrina wanted her favourite photographer to be summoned for the shoot. The makers, apparently, caved in and she had her way.

Daddy’s spoilt girl: Sonam Kapoor is known to be a fashionista, but on the sets of her film Dolly Ki Doli, the actress took things into her own hands when she changed six costumes until she felt, she got the right one. This did not go down well with the crew members. Once she also stormed out of the film Mausam’s sets when she realised that her make-up man, vanity van and spot boys were all missing. The crew had to persuade her to come back. 

Problem with this, problem with that: Another actress joining the list of Bollywood’s tantrum divas is Anushka Sharma. The Bombay Velvet actress, wanted to have her way at an annual police show.  It seems that Anuksha Sharma threw a full-fledged tantrum because she wanted her act to follow Aamir Khan’s act and she wasn’t allowed to do so.  In another instance, Anushka when shooting for an ad campaign wasn’t too happy that a body double was being used. Anuskha got so miffed that she locked herself in her vanity van and refused to step out and shoot till the other girl’s look was changed.

Talk to the assistant! : Looks like the actress, famous for playing psychotic roles is famous for her psychotic behavior off-screen as well. Kangana, when traveling by air, takes her assistant with her. Well, that is not the problem. While she travels first class, the assistant travels in the economy class. And when asked by the airhostesses about what she’d like to eat or drink, she directs all queries through her assistant, which makes them run all around searching for her assistant. In a recent incident, she demanded credits for dialogue writing. She also sits at every script narrations so that she can suggest changes.
