Mumbai, Dec 1: Members of the film fraternity are shocked and speechless after hearing the news that actress-model-host Gauahar Khan was slapped by a man for reportedly wearing skimpy clothes. Director Madhur Bhandarkar finds it "disgusting and highly condemnable". Gauahar was slapped Sunday night on the sets of singing reality show “India's Raw Star” here. The accused was one of the audience members. Farhan took to Twitter to express his anger. “Dearest natural selection, please help us out-evolve morons like the one who slapped Gauahar Khan. Sincerely,” he tweeted Monday. The case is being investigated. An official from Aarey Colony police station told IANS: "Last night (Sunday night), the accused Mohammad Akil Malik was brought here and he is in our custody. We are investigating this case." The “Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year” actress had sought help from police Sunday night itself. The accused had been reportedly observing the model for the last three days. On Sunday night, he suddenly got up and went to the stage. He initially tried to touch her and then slapped her. He is likely to be booked on charges of molestation and assault. He asked her how could she wear skimpy outfits and dance to cheap songs despite being a Muslim.
