Sushant Singh Rajput’s friend and Pavitra Rishta director Kushal Zaveri has put out a note on Instagram sharing about the time when false #MeToo accusations were doing the rounds on the Internet back in 2018. Back then, reports of misconduct with Sushant’s Dil Bechara co-star Sanjana Sanghi had surfaced, and Sushant had been really upset about them and also once shared screenshots of his WhatsApp chat with her, denying the #MeToo allegations. Now, Kushal Zaveri has shared that the most vulnerable he had seen Sushant was during the #MeToo movement and that he couldn’t sleep for 4 nights waiting for his Dil Bechara co-star Sanjana Sanghi to clear the allegations.
In his Instagram caption, Kushal wrote, “I am putting this here out not only for closure sake but to also find out if the people sushant thought were targetting him Were actually behind this ! #justiceforsushantsinghrajput.” The note that Kushal shared, read, “I stayed with Sushant from July 2018 to Feb 2019... the most vulnerable I have seen him was during the #metoo movement in Oct 2018... the electronic media was targeting him without any solid proof... We tried our best to contact sanjana sanghi but it seems she was in USA and was not available for any comment (strange coincidence) .”
Kushal Zaveri further wrote, “Sushant knew back of his mind who was targetting him but didn't have proof to call them out... I remember how sushant couldn't sleep for 4 nights waiting for Sanjana to clear the allegations... Finally she cleared his name on the 5th day and it all seemed like a hard earned victory as if the battle was over...”
Sanjana Sanghi had tweeted back in October 2018 and denied reports of these allegations, calling them baseless. She had shared a statement that read, “On returning from a long trip to the US yesterday, I read several baseless and unfounded stories with respect to misconduct and misbehaviour on the sets of our film Kizie Aur Manny.I’d like to clarify that no such incident took place with me. Let’s put an end to these conjectures.”
Recently, Sanjana Sanghi revealed why it took her long to clarify the false #MeToo allegations leveled against Sushant Singh Rajput. Read more about it here.
