    'Indian Idol' to sack Anu Malik post sexual harassment allegations?
  • Anu Malik, once again, grabbed the headlines (for wrong reasons) after singer Shweta Pandit accused him of sexual misconduct.

    She alleged that he had harassed her during an audition when she was a minor.

    Obviously, the allegations have created a stir in the industry, and people are demanding his 'elimination' from 'Indian Idol 10'.

    He is, currently, a judge on the singing-based reality show.
