Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif's alleged rivalry has been a hot topic in Bollywood gossip circles for years.

During 'Koffee With Karan', Katrina Kaif had also accepted that Deepika is not a friend, while the latter had asked to see Katrina Kaif's passport.
3. Kangana Ranaut and Alia Bhatt
Kangana Ranaut's outspoken nature has often led to clashes with several Bollywood figures, including Alia Bhatt. The feud escalated when Kangana criticised Alia Bhatt and she called her performance in 'Gully Boy' mediocre. Alia, however, responded with grace. The exchange also ignited a debate among fans about nepotism and talent in Bollywood.
