Queen Actress Nayani Dixit Also Accuses Vikas Bahl Of Misconduct; Says, “I Told Him Maarungi Tumhe If You Do This Again”
After Kangana Ranaut and a few other women spoke up against Vikas Bahl, now Queen actress Nayani Dixit speaks up about her encounter with the filmmaker. Here's what she has to say
Doors have begun to close for Vikas Bahl after he was called out for misconduct and sexual harassment by multiple women. First an ex-employee of Phantom Films, then Kangana Ranaut, then a noted actress, and now Queen actress Nayani Dixit.
Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, Nayani said, “Whatever the girl (The girl who spoke to HuffPost) has accused Vikas Bahl is not at all wrong because he also tried his hand on me. I literally told him that ‘main tumhe maarungi if you do this again’.” Talking about another incident, Nayani said, “They kept us in a 2-star hotel. When I said that I am not comfortable, Vikas told me that he can share his room with me. Look at his audacity!”
That was not enough. Nayani went on to speak up about another girl, who was uncomfortable with Vikas' conduct. According to Nayani, Vikas even tried to misbehave with many others on the sets of the film (Queen). “We were shooting for the ‘London Thumakda’ song and in the crew, there was a 21-year-old local Delhi girl who was in the costume department. Vikas flirted even with her and she was very uncomfortable and she later confided to me that why this person is always behind me. Even Kangana Ranaut was witness to this drama and even she was taken aback. She remarked, ‘Tu pagal hai kya?’” said Nayani.
Nayani didn't speak up about this till now as she felt she was alone. “I did not say anything then. I was quiet at that time as firstly, I was alone. I did not know anyone neither from Phantom nor from the cast. Hence, I remained mum and decided to speak when the time is right. Now I thought that the time is right,” concluded Nayani.
