Dimple Paul on opening up now about Sajid Khan’s sexual allegations

Indian model Dimple Paul (Paula) recently revealed how she was allegedly sexually harassed by Sajid Khan, 10 years ago.

Revealing why it’s taken her such a long time to open up, Paul said, “I was re-evaluating my life during the lockdown and realised that when I started my career with same pageant and all of these things happened with me, I didn’t go to any big banners for the next three to four years, thinking that everyone is the same. I wasted so many years of my life. I went through that stress, so how could I speak about it?”

She went on to add, “Also, my mother was orthodox. She never wanted me to get into the industry. If I told her about my first horrifying encounter with him (Sajid Khan), she would never allow me to enter Bollywood. So, I was saving myself at that time. And, I am sorry, I think I did something wrong. I didn’t speak up at that time.”

Talking about how she is no longer living in fear, Paul stated, “My mother passed away last year, my father is no more; I don’t think I am scared of anything. I just wanted to speak out my story because a lot of people want to get into Bollywood. They should know that some perverts like him exist.”
