#MeToo Bollywood: More skeletons tumbled out of Bollywood's closet with now actor Sushant Singh Rajput being accused of sexual harassment by no other than his co-star from the upcoming film 'Kizie and Manny', Sanjana Sanghi. According to media reports, Sushant made Sanjana ‘uncomfortable’ on the film set. As per the report published in DNA, Sushant was trying to be ‘extra-friendly’ towards newbie Sanjana Sanghi. On one such occasion, the actress seemed to have got uncomfortable and apparently brought it to the notice of her parents. The shooting of the film has meanwhile come to a standstill, in the wake of the allegations. However, Sanjana has not yet spoken on the issue publicly.


Meanwhile, responding to the harassment allegations levelled against him, Sushant took to Twitter and shared the screenshots from their text conversation to clear his name. In his tweet, the 'MS Dhoni' actor wrote that someone has a ‘personal agenda’ in maligning his name through the rumours. He posted the screenshots and wrote, “I feel sad to reveal personal information but it seems that there is no other way to state what was, in the midst of this curated and well timed smear campaign. From the first till the last day of the shoot, this is what happened on the Set with Sanjana.”






Since yesterday, Sushant’s name suddenly started trending on the microblogging site with many users talking about the earlier report. It was also said that Sushant has lost his blue tick which is a sign to mark verified accounts on Twitter, after his name trended. However, clearing his stand on the blue tick, the actor said it was taken from him on September 5. He said, “And for all those deliberately using the missing of Twitter ‘blue tick’ to substantiate their false claims, allow me to tell you that it is not there since 5th of September. Get your facts checked before jumping to conclusions that you so eagerly want to.”




Meanwhile, the film's director Mukesh Chabbra has come in support of Sushant. He replied to Sushant Singh's tweet saying that no such incident took place on the sets and he is completely supportive of the actor's version of the story. He tweeted, “I totally stand by @itsSSR - no such incident happened on the sets and let's not have a Twitter trial and make an innocent person suffer for somebody else's ulterior motives I had clarified this on twitter long back and I still maintain it.”
