It was just two days ago when we read Sham Kaushal as the new name in the accused list of the #MeToo movement. An AD named Nameeta Prakash had shared the experience of 2006 where she was on an outdoor shoot where even Kaushal was present. She described how he called her to his room to drink vodka. She also added that on denying, he showed her a porn MMS video clip to her. While the veteran action director had issued an apology for the same, the chapter is not over for him yet. Aparna Sud, a production designer has now decided to narrate her experience that could very well be the final nail in the coffin for Mr Kaushal.

Aparna took to her Twitter account to reveals details of a tragic incident where Sham Kaushal tried to be too touchy with her. The incident is very recent and barely four years old. She revealed how she started maintaining a safe distance from him once she realised his constant touching wasn't a coincidence but intentional. She even recalled how her 'maintaining a distance' from him changed his entire attitude towards her. #MeToo: Shweta Pandit Accuses Anu Malik of Sexual Harassment; Calls Him a Pedophile.

After Nameeta's allegations, Kaushal had issued an apology stating he has always strived hard to be a good human being. Yet he's deeply saddened and sorry if his actions have ever bothered any of his female crew members. We wonder if this new accusation will make him issue another apology.
