Actress Esha Gupta, who has been away from the big screen for a while, continues to stay in the limelight through her candid interviews and social media presence. In a recent conversation with Siddharth Kannan, the Humshakals actress offered a rare insight into her professional fallout with filmmaker Sajid Khan, with whom she worked on the 2014 comedy.
Esha Gupta breaks silence on fallout with Sajid Khan, DENIES #MeToo allegations against him: “I don’t like people abusing me”
Recalling the tense incident, Esha said, “I had a fight. Sajid Khan and I were not at all on the same page, and we ended up having a proper fight. It happened once, and after that, things were never the same. See, I don’t like people abusing me. You should always treat people the way you want them to treat you. It’s that simple. Unhone mujhe gaali di… phir maine bhi di (He abused me, so I abused him back).”
The disagreement, according to Esha, was so serious that she walked off the set. “I went home. I didn’t stay. I had also made up my mind to exit the film. But it was the producer who apologised first, even before Sajid did,” she added.
When pressed about the exact reason behind their conflict, the actress chose not to disclose details. However, the conversation shifted to the #MeToo allegations that emerged against Sajid Khan in 2018. Esha clarified her stance firmly, stating that she was never subjected to any sexual misconduct by the filmmaker.
“I’ve never said anything in relation to #MeToo about Sajid. In fact, when those allegations started coming out, someone even added my name to the list of people who accused him. I said, ‘No.’ Dekhiye, jahan jisne jo galti ki hai woh bolo (Look, whoever has made a mistake, call them out for that),” she said.
She continued, “Like I’m openly saying now that he abused me. But Sajid never tried any of those [sexual misconduct] things with me. So I will not say that about him.”
