Responding to Kajal Aggarwal’s sister Nisha Aggarwal's allegation that her elder sister's topless photo published on the cover of FHM’s September issue was morphed, the FHM India officials clarified that Kajal Aggarwal’s topless picture in the magazine is real.

In a statement, FHM India editor Kabeer Sharma said: "People, people calm down. FHM has never in the past or will in the future morph pictures of any celebrities. We shot with madam Aggarwal on the 18th of August in Mumbai and have a full team composed of assistants, stylists, makeup artists, photographers and others to back it up. We’d be happy to release the full untouched raw pictures on the Internet soon to back it up also."

"Furthermore we also have a model release form signed by Kajal herself. To say that the picture is morphed is an insult to both the brand FHM as well as the collective intelligence of you (her fans) as well as anyone with half an idea about how Photoshop works. We don’t know what exactly made Kajal change her mind after the shoot… but if she did, the magazine really cannot be blamed," he added.
