Television actress Navina Bole has accused filmmaker Sajid Khan of sexual harassment. She called him a “terrible” man and shared a disturbing incident from 2004. At that time, Sajid was working on the movie Heyy Babyy.
The Disturbing Meeting
Speaking to Subhojit Ghosh on his YouTube channel, Navina recalled her experience. She said, “There is this terrible, terrible man who I would never want to meet in my life called Sajid Khan. He really pushed the envelope when it came to disrespecting women.”
Navina explained that she felt excited when Sajid invited her to a meeting. However, the situation quickly turned uncomfortable. She revealed, “He said, ‘Why don’t you just get off your clothes and sit in your lingerie? I need to see how comfortable you are in your body.’ I am talking about 2004, 2006.”

Her Immediate Response
Navina shared that she had someone waiting for her downstairs. She did not know how to respond to Sajid’s inappropriate remarks. She added, “He said, ‘Why? You wear a bikini on stage? So what is the problem? It is all tits and ass in his language! You can come and sit here comfortably, be yourself.'”
Trying to get out of the uncomfortable situation, Navina told Sajid, “I will need to go home and get into a bikini if that is what you want to see and I cannot strip right now.”
Even after she left Sajid’s office, the harassment continued. Navina revealed that Sajid called her around 50 times, asking where she had reached and why she wasn’t returning.
