One of the Bollywood queens, Madhuri Dixit seems to have landed in a soup for endorsing Maggi, with the Haridwar Food and Drug Administration sending a notice on Friday to her on the claims made in the advertisement.
As per the notice, the actress should provide them with a report within 15 days on claims made in the advertisement regarding the nutrition value of the ‘2-minute noodles’, an official of Haridwar Food and Drug Administration said. Maggi recently came under the scanner after samples collected by Uttar Pradesh Food Safety and Drug Administration were reported to be containing Mono Sodium Glutamate (MSG) and lead more than the permissible limits.
