Bollywood actor and filmmaker Sohail Khan has been capturing attention on Alliance, with his team leading the leaderboard this week. While audiences have appreciated his playful personality as he dances and rejoices in his team’s wins, the latest episode also featured a deeply emotional revelation. Sohail shared that he was sexually harassed during his childhood and disclosed that he did not speak about the incident to anyone until he reached adulthood.
Sohail Khan recalls being sexually harassed
While talking to Arslan Goni, Ruhee Dosani, and Aly Goni, Sohail stated that he is firmly opposed to ragging and has consistently advised his children never to feel hesitant or ashamed about speaking out if someone bullies them. He then disclosed that he himself had been a victim of sexual harassment in his youth.
Sohail said, "I was sexually harassed by someone when I was a child, and I kept it to myself for many years. When I grew up and became an adult, I finally told my father. I said, 'Daddy, this happened to me.' He replied, 'Beta, you carried this inside you for so many years.' I told him, 'I am so sorry, but I was too embarrassed to talk about it.' I was not to blame, yet I still felt ashamed. That is why I constantly tell my children that, whatever happens, they must tell me everything."
In the latest episode, Sohail confessed that he misses his family and became emotional, breaking down in tears while speaking about them. He told host Kunal Kemmu that even though he has previously judged and hosted reality shows, he never fully grasped the pressure contestants endure until he took part in Alliance. Sohail said the show taught him something he had not learned in his 55 years.
Recently, the show also brought Sohail back together with his ex-wife, Seema Sajdeh, who joined the competition as a wildcard contestant. Their reunion quickly went viral, with viewers praising the friendly relationship they still maintain. Since entering the house, Seema has also been seen advising Sohail on the game and motivating him to participate more actively.
