Irony at its best?
Sajid talks about 'respecting' women
In fact, Sajid also spoke about wooing a woman with respect and care. He said that it is important to make a woman feel protected, cared and secured. "You have to be a gentleman. You have to give her the certain degree of protection and maintain the thin line between caring and being possessive," Sajid added. Preaching and practising are extremely different, it seems.

Is respecting women on camera and behaving otherwise Sajid's mantra?

Sajid accused
Backstory: Sajid Khan accused of sexual misconduct
Notably, Sajid Khan has been accused of sexual harassment by several women lately. Four women have shared their horrendous ordeal of being harassed by Sajid and left the B-town appalled. In fact, one of the victims even claimed that he asked her to strip and seduce him to get a role in a movie. We wonder what Sajid has to say about these videos.
