In a recent interview with Telly Masala, the actress revisited the incident, sharing her version of what she says happened during the filming of the television show.
Speaking about their professional equation, Saanvi claimed that Karan Kundra had shown a personal interest in her, while insisting that those feelings were never mutual. She also alleged that some scenes during the shoot made her uncomfortable, particularly an intimate sequence that prompted her to seek support. According to Saanvi, she spoke to Karan’s then-girlfriend, Anusha Dandekar, about her concerns, after which Anusha allegedly began visiting the set more frequently.
The actress also recounted an alleged incident involving a kissing scene, which she said became the turning point. Saanvi claimed that Karan kissed her before the director had called for the take, something she described as inappropriate. Reacting in the moment, she alleged that she slapped him.
According to Saanvi, the situation escalated shortly afterward. She claimed that Karan returned to the set around 10 to 15 minutes later and slapped her in front of the cast and crew with such force that she fell to the ground. The actress further alleged that no one on the set stepped in to support her during the incident.
Recalling the emotional impact of the alleged altercation, Saanvi said she left the set feeling shattered and questioned whether she wanted to continue working in the television industry. She also alleged that Karan verbally abused both her and her parents following the incident.
Saanvi further claimed that producer Ekta Kapoor later contacted her, apologized on Karan Kundra’s behalf, and invited her for a private meeting. According to the actress, Ekta assured her that her concerns would be addressed while emphasizing that the show needed to continue. She also alleged that the show’s director was replaced after the episode.
As of now, Karan Kundra has not issued any public response to Saanvi Talwar’s latest allegations. These remain allegations made by the actress, and Karan has not commented on the claims at the time of writing.
