Ever since the first episode of Bigg Boss 16 aired and the inclusion of Bollywood filmmaker Sajid Khan was confirmed, the show has been in the midst of a big ongoing controversy. Sajid Khan, who had been accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women during the #MeToo campaign, has come under public scrutiny again and many have been irked by the decision of the makers to include him as a contestant.
While there are already multiple appeals to get the filmmaker ousted from the show due to his sexual misconduct, actress Sherlyn Chopra has now filed a police complaint against him at the Juhu police station in Mumbai.
