Television actor Navina Bole, known for her role in ‘Ishqbaaz’, has come forward with serious allegations against filmmaker Sajid Khan. In an interview with Subhojit Ghosh on YouTube, Navina recalled the disturbing event during a casting call for ‘Heyy Baby’. She claimed Sajid asked her to “take off her clothes” and sit in lingerie to test her comfort on camera.

Navina, a former Gladrags model, said, “You know I was really excited when he called me and then he literally said why don’t you just get off your clothes and sit in your lingerie? I need to see how comfortable you are. I am talking about 2004 and 2006 when I did gladrags.” However, she told the director that she would have to go home and get a bikini and left. While she thought everything was finished, Navina stated that she had received over 50 calls from the director asking when she would return. She also shared that he contacted her again a year later, seemingly unaware of their previous interaction.
For context, in 2018, Sajid Khan was named by multiple women during India’s #MeToo movement, facing similar allegations of sexual misconduct.
