‘Ek Hasina Thi’ actress Poonam Preet has accused comedian Raja Sagoo of being molested. Poonam alleges that Raja tried to kiss her at a New Year’s party in Kathmandu, while Raja denied the allegation.
In an interview to Times of India, she was quoted as saying, “After the show, my manager Sheetal, Raja and I were at the dining table where Raja showed pictures of his daughter and said that his wife was pregnant. After the dinner, we were playing at the casino. I was feeling uneasy at the time since I had viral fever. I told my manager that I was done for the day and I’d be going back to my room to sleep.”

She further added, “My manager asked me if I wanted her to accompany me to my room. I asked her to stay at the casino. Hearing this, Raja said that he was also done and he’d be coming along since he too wanted to go back to his room, and so he accompanied me. While walking back to our respective rooms we passed through an empty lobby. He suddenly pulled me towards him and tried to kiss me. I was in complete shock. It was completely unexpected from a person who’d just spoken about how much he loved his daughter!”
Poonam also said that at the very moment the comedian pulled her towards him and tried to kiss, though she kicked him and ran. Ek Hasina Thi actress further said that she abused him.
However, Raja says that it is all a publicity stunt.
