‘Laalo’ actor lands in controversy after actress alleges inappropriate messages from him

OTT actress Nehal Vadoliya has made serious allegations against Gujarati actor Karan Joshi, known for his film ‘Laalo’. Vadoliya shared a video on Instagram and claimed that Karan had sent her inappropriate messages earlier this year. 

Vadolia shared a video on Instagram and said that she is not speaking about the matter for fame, but to show proof. She claimed that she was told that the inappropriate message to her was sent by a friend of actor’s, but llater it was said that his account had been hacked.

Vadoliya alleged that Joshi, along with a mutual friend, a producer, and a director tried to convince her to delete the posts and stay silent. She also alleged that they emotionally pressured her by using religious sentiments and asked her not to spoil anyone’s image.

Vadoliya further said that she had agreed to speak privately on a call, but was told not to reveal that an apology had been made. Vadoliya said she had agreed to settle the matter privately at that time, but now wants to bring the truth forward so that no other girl faces a similar situation. She also encouraged people to raise their voice if something wrong happens to them.

Responding to the controversy, Karan Joshi denied all the allegations and said his Instagram account was hacked in January. He explained that during that period he was busy promoting his film and did not notice suspicious activity on the account. Karan claimed that someone may have sent messages from his account without his knowledge. He also said that he later clarified the matter to Vadoliya during a group call, after which he believed the issue had ended.

The actor further said he does not understand why the matter has resurfaced after several months. He added that the controversy has mentally disturbed him and his family, and he is currently taking legal advice regarding the matter. So far, no official complaint has been filed by either side.
