**Subhash Ghai Responds to Sexual Assault Allegations: ‘False, Defamatory’**

*By Shreya Mukherjee | Oct 01, 2025, 05:32 PM*

Veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai has strongly denied the sexual assault allegations made by actor Nehal Vadoliya. On Wednesday, Ghai issued a statement calling the accusations “false” and warned of legal action against those attempting to “malign” his reputation.

In his statement, Ghai said,
*”I want to make it clear that any individual attempting to malign my reputation or my companies and team members through false allegations will be held accountable under the law.”*

He further added that his legal team is prepared to take strict action against defamatory attempts.
*”If anyone has a genuine grievance, the correct and rightful course is to approach the police or the appropriate legal authorities. Resorting to social media to spread unverified claims for publicity is not only misleading to the public but also unlawful,”* the statement read.

### The Allegations

Nehal Vadoliya, known for her work in *House Arrest*, had alleged in a recent interview that Ghai misbehaved with her during a visit to his house. Vadoliya was dating the filmmaker’s manager at the time.

According to Vadoliya, what began as a casual evening soon turned uncomfortable when Ghai started complimenting her looks and calling her “very sexy.” She claimed the situation escalated when Ghai allegedly followed her near the washroom and attempted to kiss her.

### Aftermath

Vadoliya expressed anger at her then-boyfriend, the manager, for putting her in such a situation.
She said,
*”I told him, ‘Where have you brought me? You are his manager, meaning you already knew all these things.’”*

The incident left her shaken and led to the end of her relationship.
*”I broke up with my boyfriend after that. He was not worth trusting,”* she added.

The controversy has sparked significant public discussion, with many awaiting further developments as the legal process unfolds.

Violence has spread to the tribal-dominated hill district of Khagrachari in Bangladesh. According to a statement from the country’s Home Ministry on Sunday, three tribal people have been killed amid the unrest. Tensions remain high in the area, prompting the deployment of army and police forces.

“The Ministry of Home Affairs has expressed deep sorrow over the incident in which three hill people were killed and 13 army personnel, including a major, three policemen—including the Officer-in-Charge of Guimara Police Station—and many others were injured in an attack by miscreants in Guimara Upazila of Khagrachhari district,” the statement said.

The ministry also assured that legal action will be taken against those involved once an investigation is completed. “No culprit will be spared,” it added. In the meantime, the ministry has requested all concerned parties to remain patient and calm.

Local media reports suggest that the tensions originated from the alleged rape of a tribal schoolgirl. Following the incident, a group called Jummu Students held a protest, which escalated into clashes between tribal communities and Bengalis.

In response to the escalating violence, the Bangladesh government has banned and blocked any rallies in the area.
