Former Bollywood actress Somy Ali, who was in a relationship with superstar Salman Khan has shared a cryptic post online threatening to expose the ‘Harvey Weinstein of Bollywood.’ She even tagged Salman’s ex-girlfriend Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the Instagram post and spoke about women who have been abused by the actor.
Sharing a silhouette shot from Salman’s old movie, she wrote, “The Harvey Weinstein of Bollywood! You will be exposed. The women you abused will come out one day and share their truth. Just like @aishwaryaraibachchan_arb.”
While the comments on the post have been limited by Somy, it was the reaction of transgender model-actress Nikkiey Chawla that has grabbed our attention. Tagging Aishwarya, Nikkiey wrote, “Can’t even imagine for a sec what all those girls might have gone through… that emotional trauma. Kudos to u my darling for raising voice and @aishwaryaraibachchan_arb.”
While Somy didn’t mention Salman’s name, her post gave enough hints. The picture shared by Somy is apparently from Salman Khan and Bhagyashree-starrer Maine Pyar Kiya‘s romantic track Aate Jaate Haste Gaate. Meanwhile, the former actress tagging Aishwarya Rai has also added fuel to the fire. Aishwarya, who dated Salman in 2001, had opened up about their abusive relationship after their ugly breakup.
For those unversed, Somy and Salman dated each other for almost a decade in the 90s. However, there was trouble in their paradise after nine years and they decided to call it quits. After their split, the Anth actress bid adieu to Bollywood and left for the US.
In an interview earlier this year, Somy had revealed that she was just 17 when she started dating her celebrity crush – Salman Khan. Somy had only travelled to India and entered showbiz to marry Salman after developing a crush on him. A 16-year-old Somy’s wishes came true just a year after she made her Bollywood debut.
Did the former actress compare ex-beau Salman Khan to American film producer and convicted sex offender Harvey Weinstein? She’s yet to make an official statement about her cryptic post and the speculations involving Khan.
