Rakhi Sawant has once again grabbed headlines after she came out in strong defense of Salman Khan while making serious allegations against filmmaker Abhinav Kashyap. In a recent video, Rakhi claimed that Abhinav, who directed the first Dabangg film, had allegedly misbehaved with her during the shoot, accusing him of starting “ladkibazi” on set.
Rakhi’s statement comes in response to Abhinav Kashyap’s long-standing criticism of Salman Khan and his family. She alleged that Abhinav’s accusations against the Khans were an attempt to divert attention from his own inappropriate behavior. According to Rakhi, Salman and his brothers have always treated her with respect, adding that the Khan family has supported her during tough times in the industry.
Her comments have stirred a fresh round of discussion on social media, with fans and critics debating both sides of the story. While some applauded Rakhi for speaking up about her experience, others questioned the timing of her revelations, suggesting that the controversy may be resurfacing due to her tendency to stay in the spotlight.
The Dabangg franchise, which marked the beginning of Salman Khan’s iconic “Chulbul Pandey” character, has had its share of behind-the-scenes disputes over the years. Abhinav Kashyap had earlier distanced himself from the sequels, alleging that the production environment was hostile. Rakhi’s new claims have now added another layer to the long-running tension surrounding the project.
For now, neither Salman Khan nor Abhinav Kashyap has officially responded to Rakhi Sawant’s statements. The matter, however, has once again reignited conversations about power dynamics and accountability within Bollywood.
