Sajid Khan’s behaviour was obnoxious and sexist, says Dia Mirza

Hindustan Times  

Actor Dia Mirza has said that she was aware of director Sajid Khan’s “ridiculous and sexist” behaviour but had no idea he could stoop to this level. While his sister Farah Khan and cousin Farhan Akhtar denied being aware of his behaviour, Dia, who had done a cameo in Sajid’s directorial Heyy Baby, has acknowledged that she was aware of his obnoxious behaviour. Dia Mirza has now spoken against Sajid Khan after the latter was accused of sexual harassment by four women. But there have been instances where I have lost out on work or people have shown disinterest in working with me because I was unwilling to succumb to this unspoken understanding of patriarchy.” At least four women -- journalist Karishma Upadhyay, actors Rachel White and Simran Soni and assistant director Saloni Chopra have accused Sajid of sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour.
