Indian actress Rani Chatterjee, who predominantly works in Bhojpuri cinema and has also participated in Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss, has accused filmmaker Sajid Khan of casting couch.
For the uninitiated, Sajid Khan faced multiple allegations of sexual harassment during India’s MeToo movement in 2018. Mandana Karimi, Aahana Kumra, Kanishka Soni, and Sherlyn Chopra were some of the actresses who openly shared their ordeal on social media.
Sajid Khan is currently inside the glass-walled house of Bigg Boss as a participant. Salman Khan, who is the host of the show, and Colors TV have been facing a lot of heat over the filmmaker’s participation in the reality show.
In an interview with a leading news channel, Rani Chatterjee opened up about her shocking experience with Sajid Khan when they met for the first time. The actress said that the filmmaker asked her to come to his residence in Juhu (Mumbai) and advised her to not bring her manager or PR along since it will be a formal meeting.
"Since he is such a huge director in Bollywood, I listened to him. I went to his Juhu house where he was alone. He initially told me that he was casting me for the “Dhoka Dhoka” item song. He told me that I will have to wear a short lehenga and asked me to show him my legs. Since I was wearing a long skirt, I had to lift it till my knees assuming maybe that is the process,” recalled the actress.
She continued, “I got scared when he asked me to tell him about my breast size. Don't be shy, do you have a boyfriend or not? How often do you have sex? I got uncomfortable and asked him 'what is all this conversation?’ He thought I would do him a favour but I immediately left. He even tried to touch me inappropriately.”
The actress admitted that she did not share her experience earlier as she feared a ban. However, Khan’s participation in Bigg Boss 16 gave her the strength to come out and share what she went through with the world.
