Goiing by the recent trends, if there's someone who seemingly deserves?the crown of controversy, it's none other than filmmaker Sajid Khan. Having a great time inside the Bigg Boss 16 house, Sajid isn¡¯t aware of what awaits him outside.?
From women digging out their alleged stories?afresh to the internet calling him out, the director appears to be in trouble.
Back in 2018, when actresses Saloni Chopra, Aahana Kumra, Sherlyn Chopra, and a journalist had made serious allegations against Sajid Khan, Farah Khan had come out in support of them. Farah who is a choreographer and a filmmaker had tweeted back then, This is a heartbreaking time for my family. We have to work through some very difficult issues. If my brother has behaved in this manner he has a lot to atone for. I don¡¯t in any way endorse this behavior and Stand in solidarity with any woman who has been hurt.¡±
¡°I didn¡¯t have the courage earlier to file a complaint against a big name like him. After #MeToo, women stepped forward. He should be jailed,¡± news agency ANI quoted her as saying. She continued, ¡°I have recently filed a complaint against #MeToo-accused Sajid Khan for sexual exploitation, criminal force and criminal intimidation.¡±
¡°The first thing that the police asked me was when this incident happened, to which I replied that it happened in 2005. They asked me why it took me so long to reach out to them. I said that back then I did not have the courage to file a sexual exploitation complaint against a big name like Sajid Khan." She added that she got the courage after the 2018 MeToo movement gained momentum.
¡°Anyone can read those media interviews or go on social media to know how #MeToo-accused Sajid Khan behaved inappropriately with those women. He asked some of them about sex, like how many times a day you have sex, how many boyfriends they have, and he showed me his genitals and made me touch them.¡±
¡°The question that arises is, can a woman not share her pain even years after the incident? Obviously she can. Back then, I did not have the courage, but today I do. Today, I feel that be it Sajid Khan or Raj Kundra, if they have done wrong, I can raise my voice against them," Sherlyn told the media.
