TV actor Tina Dutta has alleged that co-star Mohit Malhotra touched her inappropriately during the shoot of their serial, Daayan. Reports claim she was even seen crying on the sets and has complained to the producers that Mohit “behaved like a hooligan”. She claimed that Mohit was warned by the makers but refuse to change his behaviour. Claiming that she had been facing this harassment for some time, Tina said, “It was going on since a long time. I went public only after it became so much that I couldn’t take it anymore. Nobody gives excuses like him that ‘woh scene mein bahek gaya tha’. He can’t say he got carried away. He was obviously doing it deliberately.”
Mohit Malhotra denies sexual harassment allegations by co-actress Tina Dutta. Mohit said, “If she was uncomfortable, why didn’t she tell me? We shoot on a set with 50 people watching us and everything is on camera. Nothing of this sort happened.” He further added, “I don’t understand, where is this coming from? After saying nothing happened, now she has gone back to giving contrary statements. How can she keep changing her statements? I have been working in the TV industry for 11 years and have shot with many women and no one has ever had any issues with me. It has taken me a long time to reach this stage in my career.” Even though the co-actors are not on talking terms, both of them are still shooting for the show in which they play husband and wife.
