New Delhi, January 28: Choreographer Ganesh Acharya has been accused of forcing a woman choreographer to watch adult videos and depriving her of work. A 33-year-old woman has filed a complaint against Ganesh Acharya at Maharashtra Women’s Commission and Amboli Police Station.
In her complaint, the choreographer said that she was asked to give a commission from her income to Acharya and watch adult videos.
Earlier, veteran choreographer Saroj Khan accused Acharya of exploiting his dancers and using his position to malign the Cine Dancers Association (CDA). Acharya, however, fended off the allegations made against by Khan.
Addressing a press conference in Mumbai on January 17, Saroj Khan said, “I am just saddened that Ganesh wants to divide this association which is not good. He and his father were associated with this association. It is good that we have rejoined the federation because we have to take some steps.”
This is not the first time that Ganesh Acharya has faced harassment charges. Tanushree Dutta had lashed out at the choreographer for spreading “malicious rumours” about her and ruining her reputation.
Along with Nana Patekar, Tanushree filed a complaint against Ganesh Acharya as well. He was the choreographer for the 2008 film Horn OK pleassss.
