The Former Bigg Boss OTT contestant Urfi Javed has come down heavily on Sajid Khan. The reason was allegedly not apologizing to any of the women he was accused of molesting.
Urfi in an Instagram story on her official account recalled netizens of alleged MeToo accusations against Sajid. In a video, Urfi said, “I would like to remind all of you that Sajid Khan has never apologized to any of the girls he molested, or he preyed on or did whatever. He has not even apologized to the nation. But on the other hand, he keeps defending his actions. He is not sorry for it but keeps defending what he did. What an as*h**e.”
Notably, Sajid took the internet by storm as he entered Salman Khan’s reality show Bigg Boss 16 as a contestant on October 2. Sajid, who had been away from the media glare for over four years, recalled how he was removed from the Housefull film franchise in 2018.
Sajid was bogged down in a controversy after several alleged harrowing MeToo accounts against him emerged online. Actors Dia Mirza, Lara Dutta, and Bipasha Basu also called out the director for his alleged misbehavior with his female colleagues on a film set.
Meanwhile, Sajid said that the past four years had been very tough for him as he had no work. “I did not have much work and have been at home for the past four years. So, when the Colors team called me up, I decided I should come here and maybe learn something about myself,” Sajid told Salman Khan.
Sajid is the brother of filmmaker-choreographer Farah Khan. He also recalled how his credit was abolished overnight from Housefull 4 movie. “I started writing after Humshakals. I was making Housefull 4 but got kicked out of the movie. My credit was taken away. I felt like this was all the gods telling me that you have to become a slightly nicer person,” Sajid added.
The show also saw a special appearance from Shehnaaz Gill as she extended her best wishes to Sajid via a pre-recorded video message.
