The Internet Slams Bhojpuri Actor Pawan Singh For Touching Co-Star Anjali Raghav’s Waist: “Absolutely Disgusting And Shameful”
New Delhi:
A video of Bhojpuri actor Pawan Singh touching co-star Anjali Raghav’s waist during a public event has gone viral.
What’s Happening
- The video drew sharp criticism on social media.
- The incident took place during the promotion of Pawan Singh’s new song Saiya Seva Kare, which also stars Anjali in a key role.
- In the clip, Anjali, dressed in a golden saree, appears visibly uncomfortable as Singh touches her on the pretext of removing something from her waist.
- He is heard telling her that he spotted “something” – possibly an insect – and asks her to stay still while he takes it off.
- Although Anjali smiles awkwardly and does not react, Internet users have called out the actor for his “inappropriate” behaviour, accusing him of ignoring the concept of consent.
- The Internet Calls It “Shameful”
- One user on X shared the video, writing: “He doesn’t know the concept of Consent. And it gets even worse in UP-Bihar. This is so-called Bhojpuri star Pawan Singh. Imagine what his fans will be learning from him (sic).”
- Another comment read, “What a disgusting and vile person he is! He did not even feel ashamed in front of so much public while doing such a despicable act. Aren’t you ashamed @PawanSingh909? Anjali Raghav feeling so uncomfortable yet she is not slapping on the stage (sic).”
- A third user blamed the actor for damaging the reputation of the Bhojpuri film industry, writing: “People like Pawan Singh defame the entire Bhojpuri community. They are unaware of how many young people influenced by them are going down the wrong path. It is a matter of shame (sic).”
