Mumbai: Sherlyn Chopra has brought fresh #Metoo charges against Sajid Khan, alleging that the filmmaker had in 2005 flashed her and asked her to touch his privates.
In a tweet she posted on Tuesday, Sherlyn wrote: "It's not an accusation but the disclosure of a fact. Our phone records of the past may be checked regarding the same." The actor has said that after flashing, he had not only asked her to touch his privates and feel it.
Sherlyn has claimed that the incident happened in 2005 when she met Sajid a few days after her father's demise. She has also spoken against the alleged "Bollywood mafia" which she claimed has been backing Sajid.
"He has the ‘superstars' of Bollywood to vouch for his ‘character'. It's my word against theirs. The Bollywood mafia is a strong syndicate," she tweeted.

Sherlyn's tweet came in reaction to a news portal that tweeted: "BBC ‘Death in Bollywood' documentary: Jiah Khan's sister narrates how Sajid Khan harassed the actor, says he asked her to take off her top."
In the last couple of years, Sajid Khan has been accused by multiple women in #metoo including assistant director Sonali Chopra, actor Rachel White and a journalist who brought allegations of sexual misconduct against him in 2018. He has denied the allegations.
Last year, the filmmaker faced fresh charges of sexual misconduct. A model named Dimple Paul claimed on Instagram that Khan had tried to touch her inappropriately and also asked her to strip before him.
