Mumbai: Actress and model Sherlyn Chopra has alleged that Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is protecting filmmaker Sajid Khan, who has been accused of sexual harassment by several women.
Sherlyn, one of those who spoke out against Sajid during the #MeToo movement in 2018, filed a complaint against him recently. On Saturday, she went to Juhu police station to record her statement against Sajid.
Speaking to mediapersons outside the police station, Sherlyn complained that she has not been getting any help from the police and also said that none can touch Sajid as he has the blessings of Salman.
“Sajid Khan ke sar par kisi aur nahin, Salman Khan sir ka hanth hain. Unke hote, Sajid Khan ka koi baal tak baka nahin kar sakta hai (Sajid Khan is being protected by Salman Khan. No one can touch him),” Sherlyn is heard saying in a video shared on Instagram by
She claimed that she visited the police station as there was no response about her complaint against Sajid.
“Maine Assistant police commissioner ko call kiya and bola Juhu Police meri madad nahin kar rahi hain. Pata nahin kya majbori rahi hongi, upar se koi dabab ayaa hoga ki mera statement na liya jayein. Mai yehi soch rahi hu ki agar ek celebrity ke sath aisa ho sakata hain toh ek aam mahila ke sath kya kuch nahin hota hoga (I informed Assistant police commissioner that Juhu Police isn’t helping me.. I don’t know why my statement is not being taken, there might be some kind of pressure, I wonder what can happen to an ordinary woman if a celebrity is being treated in such a way),” Sherlyn added.
