*By Shreya Mukherjee | Oct 01, 2025, 05:32 PM*
Veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai has strongly denied the sexual assault allegations made against him by actor Nehal Vadoliya. On Wednesday, Ghai issued a statement labeling the accusations as “false” and warned of legal action against anyone trying to “malign” his reputation.
“I want to make it clear that any individual attempting to malign my reputation or my companies and team members through false allegations will be held accountable under the law,” Ghai said.
**Ghai’s Statement and Legal Warning**
In his statement, Ghai emphasized that his legal team is prepared to take strict action against any defamatory attempts. He added, “If anyone has a genuine grievance, the correct and rightful course is to approach the police or the appropriate legal authorities.”
He further criticized the use of social media to spread unverified claims for publicity, calling it “misleading to the public” and “unlawful.”
**The Allegations**
Actor Nehal Vadoliya, known for her work in *House Arrest*, alleged in a recent interview that Ghai misbehaved with her during a visit to his house. At the time, Vadoliya was dating Ghai’s manager.
According to her account, what began as a casual evening took an uncomfortable turn when Ghai started complimenting her looks and calling her “very sexy.” She claimed the situation escalated when he followed her near the washroom and attempted to kiss her.
**Aftermath and Personal Impact**
Vadoliya expressed anger toward her then-boyfriend for involving her in the troubling situation. She said, “I told him, ‘Where have you brought me? You are his manager, meaning you already knew all these things.'”
The incident left Vadoliya deeply shaken and ultimately led to the end of her relationship. “I broke up with my boyfriend after that. He was not worth trusting,” she revealed.
