Bollywood director Sajid Khan has been decorating the headlines ever since his entry in Bigg Boss 16. The audience is miffed with Sajid Khan as he was accused of sexually harassing the women. He was convicted under #MeToo. As per the reports, late actress Jiah Khan was one of the victims whom the Heyy Baby director had allegedly sexually molested. Jiah Khan’s sister Karishma Khan opened up about the director and shared a shocking incident, in the television series Death In Bollywood.
Karishma Khan recalled the incident that she and her sister had faced. She even accused him of sexual misconduct. Karishma also claimed that he not only troubled Jiah but also declared that she wanted to have sex with him.
While sharing the incident she revealed, “It was a rehearsal, she was reading the scripts and he asked her to take off her top and her bra. She didn’t know what to do, she said ‘the filming hasn’t even begun yet and this is happening.’ She came home and cried.”
She continued, “I remember going to Sajid Khan’s house with my big sister and I remember being around the kitchen table, must’ve been like 16 at this stage. I was just wearing a strappy top and was leaning at the table and he was sort of staring and said ‘Oh she wants sex’. My sister Jiah immediately jumped to my defence and said, ‘No what are you talking about’, and he said, ‘Look at the way she’s sitting’. My sister said, ‘No she’s innocent, she’s young, she doesn’t know what she wants.’ And then we left shortly after that”. Karishma mentioned that Jiah did that because she had signed the contract and feared legal trouble.
Karishma shared some of his negative habits and said, “Whipped out his penis at parties. Asked female actors to send nudes as part of the casting. Talked in a sexually degrading manner to women. Watched porn in front of his female staff.”
For the unversed, there are nine women, who had come ahead to share their experiences and accused the Housefull director of sexual harassment. These women include journalist Karishma Upadhyaya, actress Ahana Kumra, late actress Jiah Khan, model-actress Mandana Karimi, Sherlyn Chopra, Dimple Paul, Saloni Chopra, Racheal White and Simran Suri.
