After a Karachi-based website claimed that the Bollywood actor is a gay, Jackie's sexual preference became a hot topic of discussion on Twitter.

The Pakistani website has claimed that the actor had admitted to a journalist at a suburban hotel in Mumbai that he has a natural preference for men and he had developed this feeling only recently, as he was attracted only to women in the 80s and 90s.

The actor had also disclosed that he would be soon settle down in abroad without his family since the Indian society doesn’t respect or give a decent social status to gays.

Jackie denies news
However, when Jackie was contacted by various media outlets, he rubbished the news.

The actor told DNA, “I want to personally find that person and beat him up. From where did they get this piece of information? Anybody who knows me wouldn’t think like this in their wildest dream.”

Likewise Jackie's wife Ayesha too denied the reports. “He was called the first lady killer of the industry and to hear that he is gay is just bizarre. My kids and I are having a good laugh,” she told Hindustan Times.

Currently the actor is in Mysore shooting for 'Anna Bond'.
