Bhojpuri actor Pawan Singh has issued a public apology to actress Anjali Raghav, after a viral video from a recent Lucknow event showed him repeatedly touching her waist on stage without consent. The incident occurred during the promotion of his song Saiya Seva Kare, which also features Anjali.
Addressing the backlash, Pawan Singh took to Instagram Stories and wrote in Hindi that he had no “wrong intention.”
“Anjali ji, vyasth schedule ke kaaran main aapka live dekh nahi paaya. Mujhe jab iss baat ki jaankari huyi, toh mujhe bura laga (Anjali, due to my busy schedule, I couldn’t watch your live. When I came to know about the matter, I felt very bad)” his note read.
He further added, “Mera aapke prati koi bhi ghalat intention nahi tha kyuki humlog kalakaar hai. Iske bawajood, agar aapko humari kisi bhi byawahaar se taqleef huyi ho toh uske liye main shama prarthi hoon (I had no wrong intention towards you as we are artists. Even then, if you were hurt by my behaviour, then I apologise).”

Anjali later shared several videos on Instagram saying she felt very uncomfortable. At first, she thought something was stuck to her clothes, but her team later confirmed nothing was there.
Meanwhile, Pawan Singh’s second wife, Jyoti Singh, posted a note on Instagram accusing him of ignoring her and not giving her support. She claimed he gave her false promises during the elections and said his behavior pushed her to the point of self-immolation.
