Kangana Ranaut accuses Vikas Bahl of harassment, says he’d hold her too tight, brag about casual sex

Hindustan Times  

Actor Kangana Ranaut has extended support to a former employee of Phantom Films who has accused Super 30 director Vikas Bahl of molestation, saying the director had harassed her on the sets of Queen as well. He’d say ‘I love how you smell K’.” Kangana Ranaut has claimed Queen director Vikas Bahl exhibited sexually inappropriate behaviour during the shoot. The 31-year-old actor said she could tell on the sets of the 2014 film that “something is wrong with him.” Kangana added in the interview, “Even though Vikas was married back in 2014 when we were filming Queen, he bragged about having casual sex with a new partner every other day. He partied every night and shamed me for sleeping early and not being cool enough.” A Huffington Post report detailed the abuse of a former employee of the company founded by Anurag Kashyap, Madhu Mantena and Vikramaditya Motwane at the hands of Vikas, who is also a co-founder, in 2015.
