After a woman employee accused Vikas Bahl, the director of Queen, of sexual harassment, Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut supported her claims and alleged that the director had misbehaved with her too during the shooting of Queen.
Vikas Bahl’s former wife Richa Dubey posted a statement in support of him and questioned why Kangana maintained a steady friendship with Bahl despite the alleged misconduct.
