Bollywood fans were shocked when news broke that Sachin Sanghvi, the composer from the acclaimed music duo Sachin-Jigar, was taken into custody following allegations of sexual harassment by a 29-year-old woman. Known for hit soundtracks in films like Stree 2 and Bhediya, Sanghvi is at the centre of a police investigation that has sparked intense debate across social media and entertainment circles.
How the Alleged Incident Started: Instagram Messages to Studio Meetings
According to PTI, the complainant stated that she first came in contact with Sanghvi through Instagram messages in February 2024. The musician allegedly offered her a chance to feature in his music album and later exchanged phone numbers with her.
The complaint claims that Sanghvi then called the woman to his music studio, where he purportedly proposed marriage and sexually assaulted her on multiple occasions. Following these allegations, local police launched a probe under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, which eventually led to Sanghvi’s arrest.
What the Police and Legal Authorities Have Confirmed
As reported by India Today, Sanghvi was arrested following the registration of the FIR, but he was soon released on bail. The case is under investigation, and authorities are examining all communications and evidence linked to the allegations.
Statement from Sachin Sanghvi’s Lawyer: Allegations Denied
Speaking on behalf of the composer, lawyer Aditya Mithe told India Today, “The allegations in the FIR against my client are absolutely baseless and unsubstantiated. There are absolutely no merits to the case. My client’s detention by the police was illegal, and that is the reason why he was released on bail immediately. We intend to defend all allegations fully and unequivocally.”
