Another Dark Chapter in the Entertainment Industry Actor Ajaz Khan has once again found himself in the eye of a legal storm after a 30-year-old woman accused him of rape, claiming he exploited her under the guise of helping her enter the film industry. On Sunday, the Charkop police in Mumbai registered a case under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita related to sexual assault, with an investigation currently underway.
According to the complainant, Khan allegedly assaulted her on multiple occasions, luring her with promises of acting opportunities and film roles. This isn’t the first time Khan’s name has been associated with controversy involving women and inappropriate behavior. His pattern of facing similar accusations raises larger concerns about the unchecked influence some individuals may wield in the entertainment ecosystem.
Adding to the controversy is Khan’s previous involvement in the web show House Arrest, streamed on the Ullu app, where he, along with others, was named in a case over obscene content. In several video clips from the show—now widely circulated on social media—Khan can be seen allegedly pressuring participants, including women, to perform intimate scenes. He is also seen asking vulgar questions to contestants, which further fueled public outrage and raised ethical questions about casting practices in digital media.
While Khan has yet to publicly respond to the latest charges, these recurring accusations paint a troubling picture. If proven true, they reflect a disturbing trend of exploitation behind the glamour of the film world, where vulnerable individuals may fall prey to false promises.
This case serves as another urgent reminder that systemic safeguards and industry accountability are still lacking. As the investigation unfolds, the need for a safer, more transparent process in talent recruitment becomes increasingly clear—not just for justice in this individual case, but for the future of the industry as a whole.
