Ali Fazal Demands Eviction Of Sajid Khan From Bigg Boss 16 Amid Participation Controversy
Ali Fazal is the next to demand Sajid Khan's eviction from the popular reality TV show Bigg Boss 16 after many female celebrities' opposition.
After many actresses and models have come forward to speak against Sajid Khan over his participation in the Salman Khan-hosted controversial reality TV show Bigg Boss Season 16, actor Ali Fazal has called for the eviction of the #metoo accused filmmaker.
Supporting the alleged victims of Sajid Khan, Ali Fazal shared a graphic image of the filmmaker being lit on fire and demanded Sajid Khan's removal from the popular TV show.
Sajid Khan, the younger brother of popular Indian filmmaker Farah Khan, is attempting to make a career comeback through this show.
From flashing his private parts at parties to asking female actors to send him their naked pictures, and watching porn in front of women, Sajid has been accused by many female actors from the industry of sexual assault by exploiting his position.
Ali Fazal raised his voice against Sajid via his Instagram account. The image of Sajid shared by Ali had #MeToo written on the wrist and says, "Evict Sajid Khan From Bigg Boss Now!"
Moreover, Ali Fazal's post comes days after The Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) wrote a letter to Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur seeking Sajid's removal from the Salman Khan show.
However, some have also come out in support of Sajid Khan. Supporting the #metoo accused, The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) recently stated that Sajid Khan had already served his punishment as he was banned by the body for one year.
"Ek aadmi ko hum ek case ke liye ek baar hi saja de sakte hain. Not again. He has served his punishment. Now, if someone has any issue and feels more should be done, they should take the legal route,¡± BN Tiwari, FWICE President, had earlier stated.
Meanwhile, Bhojpuri superstar Rani Chatterjee has recently accused Sajid Khan of sexual harassment. She said that during a meeting for the film Himmatwala, filmmaker Sajid enquired about the size of her breasts and the frequency of her intercourse with boyfriend.
On the personal front, Ali Fazal recently celebrated his marriage with actress Richa Chadha.
The two marked their special union by organizing a series of functions with close friends and family. While on the professional front, Ali is currently busy with his upcoming Netflix movie Khufiya and Kandahar led by Gerard Butler.
On the other hand, Sajid Khan is set to don the director's hat once again with 100%. The film stars Riteish Deshmukh and John Abraham in the lead roles among others.
