Shilpa Shinde Admits Sexual Harassment Allegations Against Bhabiji Producer Were FalsePreviousNext

Actor Shilpa Shinde has admitted that the sexual harassment allegations she made against 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain' producer Sanjay Kohli in 2016 were false. She revealed on a podcast that she filed the complaint amid a payment dispute and felt she had no other option at the time. The matter was later resolved through an out-of-court settlement, which cleared her pending payments. Shilpa emphasized that no producers supported the accused then, and she made the allegations to pursue legal recourse.
