The instances of physical abuse, molestation and inappropriate advances seem to have gripped the telly world in recent times and does not seem to be halting any time soon.

While the Parth Samthaan-Vikas Gupta's heated war, Pratyusha Banerjee and Ratan Rajput's molestation controversy hasn't even faded yet, another news of similar nature has struck the industry.

According to a leading news portal, Actress Poonam Preet, who is best known for her roles in 'Ek Hasina Thi', 'Dilli Wali Thakur Girls' and 'Do Dil Bandhe Ek Dori Se' recently got involved in an unusual situation with comedian, Raja Sagoo.

The actress mentioned, "After the New Year's Eve gala show, my manager and I interacted with Raja, as we were seated on the same dining table. Later, we proceeded to the casino. My manager was enjoying herself at the games, but a few minutes later, I got up to leave. Raja said he too was heading to his room. We walked out together, but while passing through the lobby, he suddenly pulled me towards him and tried to kiss me."

Shocked with this sudden move, Poonam pushed him away, rushing to her manager. She added, "Raja followed me and pleaded with me not to tell anyone. I called the organisers and related the incident. Raja apologised to him and requested not to tell anyone about it."

The comedian is best known for his parodies and mimic acts on the Khans. In his defence, Raja mentioned that he has his own way of talking in a fun style and he doesn't understand why has she picked him to garner publicity! He further adds that he is married and has a kid. Also, his wife being pregnant for the second time, He wouldn't be such a small person to do such a thing.
