Actress Daisy Shah has made remarks about the "navel obsession" in southern Indian movies. In a recent interview, she commented that every single song she saw of a Kannada actor had navel frames. She made a light remark, describing the navel shots as "fruit salad" moments. "There is an actor in Kannada whose heroines invariably have vegetable or fruid salads made on their navels," Daisy said.
While she didn't name the actor, netizens guessed that she was referring to Ravichandran, a popular Sandalwood actor.
Daisy Shah's first major acting role was in the 2011 Kannada film Bhadra, and she made her Hindi film debut opposite Salman Khan in the 2014 movie Jai Ho. She has since appeared in films such as Hate Story 3 and Race 3. She was also a contestant on the reality show Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 13 in 2023.
