Ex-Angoori bhabhi Shilpa Shinde faces a defamation case by the producers of Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai!



Angoori aka Shilpa Shinde rivalry with The Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai’s team seems to be turning unpleasant day by day. Just a week after, Shilpa Shinde blamed prouducer Sanjay Kohli of molesting her, now Sanjay and his wife Binaifer have filed a criminal defamation case against Shilpa. As per to a source of tabloid, "Binaifer and Sanjay have enough proof to counter Shilpa's claims in the FIR, which will be contested in court." Shilpa had filed an FIR against Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai producer, Sanjay Kohli, wherein she alleged that the latter sexually harassed her during her stint on the show. 

She also had informed the media of how it all started out as a joke, but, she tried to stop when things went out of control. A tabloid quoted her telling, “In our industry everything is taken lightly. Guys say so many things and if you react to them, they go like - ‘we are kidding’. Things like – ‘You are looking, hot sexy’ - are common. Sanjay ji used to come on the set and while Benaifer would take care of all the paper work, he would be the one who would talk like this to us." 

Sharing on of the instance she told, "Sanjay ji told me that for the promotion of show, we will have to go out and that we will have a nice time. Also, in the make-up room, he came close to me and photo lete huye and apna haath rakha mujhe…I could feel that touch was not right." She further added that she had shared this with her then co-star Saumya Tandon who she did not take it seriously and instead told, "Humari industry mei koi rape nahi karta."

The actor in her FIR has alleged that Kohli used to threaten her that he will throw her out of the show if she refuses to get into a physical relationship with him. The 39-year-old actor also claimed that her make-up man was witness to these happenings but unfortunately he was fired. But, Kohli's wife Binaifer defending her husband specified, “These are obviously false allegations. All I can say is that the matter is sub judice. I have faith in the legal system. I don’t want to give her (Shilpa) unnecessary attention.”


The Production team even released a statement telling that they will see her in Court. "All we can say is that matter is subjudice, we have full faith in the judiciary. We will see her in court. We don't want to give her unnecessary importance for her obvious false allegations," read the statement.  Apart from this, the actor has also been sued by the production team for Rs 12.5 crore to make up for the losses they had to bear due to her absence on the show last year.
