Hina Khan Tells Fans to Stop Trolling After Shilpa Shinde Says Her Harassment Claim Was False

TV industry groups have raised alarm over Shinde’s admission because it could erode trust in genuine harassment complaints.

Overview

  • Shilpa Shinde told a podcast that an old sexual-harassment complaint she filed against Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain producer Sanjay Kohli was false and that the matter ended in a settlement.
  • Hina Khan publicly condemned the confession as "absolutely shameful," described Kohli as the "real victim," and criticised using allegations as leverage in personal disputes.
  • Hina posted an Instagram note on Monday urging fans to stop trolling, asking for kindness and warning she will block followers who engage in abuse even if they support her.
  • Shilpa responded with social media videos that mocked Hina’s posts and urged people to use influence to back educator Khan Sir, whose separate Patna investigation and an FIR remain active.
  • Industry bodies such as FWICE and AICWA and other TV figures have reacted to the episode, raising questions about reputational harm, accountability in the TV business, and the effect of fan-driven online harassment.
