The complainant alleged that Sanghvi molested her under the pretext of offering a role in a music album and proposing marriage. The incident has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, given the duo’s prominence in Bollywood and Gujarati cinema.
According to the FIR, the victim connected with Sanghvi in February 2024 via Instagram. She claimed he invited her to his studio, where he made false promises of marriage and sexually assaulted her on multiple occasions.
Mumbai Police registered a case under relevant sections and detained Sanghvi, though he was later released on bail. His lawyer, Aditya Mithe, dismissed the allegations as “baseless,” asserting that the detention was unlawful and the case lacks merit..
Sachin has not issued a public statement, and his Instagram account is currently deactivated. Jigar Saraiya, his music partner, has also remained silent on the matter.
The duo, known for chartbusters like Aaj Ki Raat from Stree 2 and music for films such as Badlapur, Hindi Medium, and Shuddh Desi Romance, has been a powerhouse in the industry since 2009, contributing to over 60 Hindi films and several Gujarati projects, including the recent Thamma.
The allegations have sparked debates online, with fans awaiting further developments. Mumbai Police are continuing their investigation into the case, while the industry watches closely.
This controversy has cast a shadow over Sachin-Jigar’s illustrious career, leaving many questions unanswered.
