Mona Singh balances three projects simultaneously after ‘Made In Heaven’ success
Mona Singh thrives post-'Made In Heaven 2', shooting three projects concurrently, showcasing her versatility and talent in diverse roles.
The yesteryear’s Bollywood star Jitendra landed in trouble on Wednesday after his cousin accused him of sexual assault, way back in 1971. The cousin filed a case with Himachal Police and has forwarded the complaint to the Director General of Police.
As per the victim’s complaint, a copy of which is with The Statesman, she was 18 years old when the incident took place while the actor was 28 years old at the time of the incident. “I knew Ravi Kapoor, known by the stage name of Jitendra, as he used to visit us at Delhi for family gatherings. Though, I didn’t meet him personally.”
“It was in 1971 when the actor approached my father and asked him whether I could join him for a film shoot in Shimla,” she said. She alleged that the actor brought her to Shimla from Delhi and stayed in a hotel room which had two separate beds.

“I was sleeping when the actor came to the room in an inebriated state and tried to force himself on me, to which I objected. But the actor continued to sexually harass me,” the victim alleged. The actor didn’t talk to her the next day and dropped her at Delhi residence.
She claimed she didn’t approach the police for the fear of her parents getting emotionally hurt over the incident and she reported the matter after the death of her parents. The complaint seems to be part of global #metoo campaign against sexual violence and the victim said by filing the complaint she wants to get healed as she suffered the indelible marks on her soul for years due to mental trauma after the abuse.
