As a part of Me Too campaign, Chinmayi Sripaada exposed a lot of celebrities from the film industry and one among them was folk singer Raghu Dixit. Following allegations of sexual misconduct by an anonymous woman on Twitter, that was shared by singer Chinmayi Sripaada, Raghu Dixit has now issued a public apology. The anonymous singer in her allegations revealed Raghu Dixit had misbehaved with her and forcibly kissed her while he was signing a cheque for her.
“He pulled me closer and asked me to give him a kiss when he was signing my cheque… Later at the door he tried to carry me and I ran down crying… He is a creep. He is obnoxious and I know many girls who have undergone worse with him,” the message in the screenshot read. Check out the full post below:

Now a day after being accused of sexual harassment, the folk singer took to social media and apologized for the same. “I know who the person in question is and I have apologized to her in the past and apart from this public apology, will do so again privately. The incident did happen but not entirely like it was described. It was completely silly misjudgement on my part. I gave a person a hug and that led me to try to kiss her before she stopped me and left from the studio,” Raghu Dixit’s statements reads.
Here is my detailed response to the anonymous statement against me. I apologise for any wrong doing on my part and will do what it takes to correct it.
I have complete faith in my integrity and I have been as true to myself as I can be with this response. pic.twitter.com/vHuNzQq6G0— Raghu Dixit (@Raghu_Dixit) October 10, 2018
