Bengali Actress Sayantika Banerjee Accuses Choreographer Of Harassment, Touching Her Without Consent
Bengali actress-politician Sayantika Banerjee recently returned from a shoot in Bangladesh midway after she was harassed by her co-worker on the sets of the film in Bangladesh. She was shooting for her upcoming film 'Chayabaj' in the neighbouring country when the incident happened, forcing her to wrap up her work and return to India suddenly.
Sayantika's sudden return to Kolkata raised eyebrows and while the actress initially stayed tightlipped, she has now finally ended her silence on the issue.
'Chayabaj' was being directed by Taju Kamrul and Sayantika has been paired opposite Jayed Khan in the film.
Sayantika accuses crew member of harassment
Sayantika has now revealed what happened on the sets of 'Chayabaj' which made her return to Kolkata. She told a portal that there were several issues on the management front on the sets of the film, which left the actress and her team disappointed.
She then revealed that earlier, another dance instructor was appointed for the shoot, however, he quit at the last moment due to a financial dispute, and that is when the accused choreographer, named Michael, stepped in.
Sayantika claimed that during the shoot, Michael made "unwanted physical contact without her consent", post which she confronted him. She added that she tried to communicate the issues on the sets with the producer but in vain.
'Won't work with Michael': Sayantika
The actress stated that she was suddenly informed about a dance sequence shoot for the film while she was in Bangladesh, and that is when she decided to not continue the shoot after being frustrated over lack of response from the producers.
She stood firm on her decision to not work with Michael despite the producer asking her to continue, and eventually returned to Kolkata.
While the film has been shot halfway, Sayantika hinted that she might return to the sets after the management issu
Sayantika Banerjee on spending time with co-actor Zayed Khan: ‘Not bothered about who says what about me…’
While shooting for ‘Chayabaj’ in Bangladesh, Sayantika unexpectedly departed from the project prematurely, citing unprofessional behavior on the part of the film's producer and a disturbing incident involving the choreographer, Michael. According to reports in Bangladeshi media, Michael had allegedly touched her without her consent during a dance rehearsal, which left the actress uncomfortable and upset.
In response to Sayantika's accusations, producer Monirul Islamcountered with derogatory remarks aimed at both the actress and the film's hero, Zayed Khan. He alleged that Sayantika had spent four private hours in a hotel with Zayed, a claim that caused quite a stir in the industry. Zayed Khanpublicly condemned the producer's comments, distancing himself from the controversy.
Sayantika, not one to remain silent, decided to address the situation in a recent interview. In her response, she firmly asserted her indifference to the rumors and criticism surrounding her actions. She confidently stated that she had no need to offer excuses as she knew the truth of the matter. She even questioned the significance of two actors, a hero and a heroine, spending time together for work-related purposes.
Furthermore, Sayantika clarified her statements regarding Michael, explaining that her words had been misconstrued. She suggested that the choreogr
Did Zayed Khan spend time with Sayantika Banerjee alone at hotel room? The Bangladeshi star clears the air
Zayed Khan, who is playing the male lead in the film, became part of the buzz not just for his role but also due to rumors about spending time with Sayantika in hotel rooms alone. Zayed, however, has refuted these claims as intentional misconceptions aimed to malign him. He asserted that Sayantika never expressed any grievances against Michael Babu. She had returned to Kolkata after completing her work, and any rumors suggesting otherwise were baseless. Zayed also emphasized that people were exploiting the situation to sully his reputation unfairly.
Choreographer Michael Babu also had his say in the matter. He mentioned that he had a cordial relationship with Sayantika, who even affectionately addressed him as ‘Dadabhai’. They had successfully wrapped up the shoot of the first song, but issues arose during the second song's shoot. Michael claimed that despite providing ample time for costume changes and a lunch break, both Zayed and Sayantika arrived late, causing them to lose crucial daylight. This resulted in the producer berating him.
Furthermore, Michael recounted an incident where Sayantika questioned why he was holding her hand during the shoot without asking for permission. He justified his actions as a routine part of the choreography process but stated that Sayantika seemed uninterested in continuing the work afterward.
Zayed Khan laid the responsibility for this mishap on the producer. Accordi
