A week ago, when Dangal fame Zaira Wasim went live on Instagram and poured her heart out describing the incident took place while she was on board from Delhi to Mumbai. She talked about an incident where a strange person who assaulted her physically. She also showed the picture of that man’s foot which he was using to roll over Zaira’s neck and body. Actress was quoted saying: “I tried to record it on my phone to understand it better. But because the cabin lights were dimmed, I failed to get it. I ignored it the first time, blamed the turbulence for it. Until I woke up to this pleasant sight of his beautiful foot rubbing my back and neck… Guess he couldn’t sit like a civilized human being and placed his foot on my arm rest while he’s fully ‘pheloaed’ his body on his seat (sic)”
In no time the whole incident went viral like fire in forest. Many came in support of the 17-year old Zaira like Queen actress Kangana Ranaut who praised Zaira for her bold move whereas Rakhi Sawant raised questions like why she didn’t raised her voice when man was misbehaving with her. Some also alleged her for falsely accusing the person. In no time the owner of that foot in the picture- Vikas Sachdeva was taken in the custody. The accused’s wife came in support of her husband and said that her husband is not at fault. The co-passenger also said in his statement that Vikas just placed his foot on Zaira’s armrest, that’s it. He didn’t tried to roll over her neck or body.
