Actor Saanvie Tallwar has accused Karan Kundrra of harassment and assault during the shoot of the television show, Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum. She said that Karan and the show’s director at the time didn’t like that she kept to herself and didn’t socialise. While filming a scene, she alleged that Karan kissed her before the director’s cue, prompting her to slap him. What followed was further assault by Karan, as Saanvie claimed. Saanvie Tallwar told Filmibeat, “There was a scene, but the director hadn’t clapped action; even before that, he kissed me, and I slapped him. He didn’t react at that time, but then he came back after some time and slapped me hard. There is a difference between the intensity of a girl’s and a man’s slap. I fell on the floor, and then he abused me and my family.”

You don’t deserve my mention also after all that has gone down, so please stop pushing articles using my 2017-18 photos, Lala. You’ve earned the money for paid PR from the label, but you’re spending it in the wrong place. Then why do you call me every year or pretend to be my brother in front of my manager @mourjo? Such unmanly behaviour man”. He also accused Tanishk Bagchi of lifting the title track of ‘Saiyaara’ from the original composers Faheem Abdullah & Arsalan Nizami.
