Mumbai, Jan 2 (Ians) Arrested actor Sheezan Khan’s family and legal team on Monday hit back at the allegations made by late actress Tunisha’s mom Vanita Sharma, saying that they “never compelled her to embrace Islam” while revealing details about the alleged rocky relations of the mother-daughter.

Khan’s family – sisters Falaq and Shafaz, mother Parveen, and lawyer Shailendra Mishra – rubbished Vanita Sharma’s claims made on December 30, that they were pressuring her to convert to Islam, and that she had started sporting a ‘hijab’ against her wishes.

They also denied ever taking her to a ‘dargah’ or making her wear a hijab, as claimed by Vanita Sharma and her uncle Pawan Sharma.

The Khans pointed out that the viral photo of Tunisha sporting a ‘hijab’ was actually from the shoots of her show, “Ali Baba: Dastaan-e-Kabul”, currently being shot in Vasai, where she (Tunisha) was found dead on December 24.

TV actor Sheezan Khan’s mother and his sisters — actresses Shafaq and Falaq Naaz — held a press conference in Mumbai in which they rubbished the allegations of ‘love jihad’ or that Tunisha was forced to wear the hijab.

The family asserted that Tunihsa’s mother ignored the state of her daughter’s mental health. If she had paid some attention to it, Tunisha would have been alive today, the family alleged.

“Tunisha was like my sister.” Falak clarified. “All this talk about the hijab, dargah are baseless. Following a religion is our own personal choice. People are saying we forced her to wear a hijab, but the picture from one of her ‘Ali Baba: Dastan-e-Kabul’ shoots.”

She added that Tunisha was in her costume and no one forced her to wear a hijab.

Sheezan’s mother referred to the claim by Tunisha’s mother that Falaq had taken her daughter to a dargah.

Television actor Sheezan Khan’s sisters Shafaq Naaz and Falaq Naaz have issued a statement slamming the media for the way their brother has been ‘targeted’. They also asserted that people should think and analyse the overall situation before putting all the blame on their brother, requesting everyone to use their ‘common sense’.

The statement reads: “It breaks our heart how our silence has been understood as weakness. This is probably what they call ‘Ghor Kalyug’. Where’s the research of some media portals before reporting things? Where’s the common sense of the masses? For all the people demeaning Sheezan – ask yourself this – are you talking based on the situation, or are you talking out of hate for a religion? Or are you talking out of influence from previous events? Stay woke, people! The journalism standards of a certain section of media have stooped so low that it only functions based on Trp.
