Recently, actors Shagun Pandey from “Mera Balam Thanedar” and Sumit Singh from “Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin” found themselves embroiled in a major controversy. Reports surfaced suggesting that Pandey and Singh were in a relationship, with allegations of Singh two-timing and being involved with another actor from her show. According to these reports, Pandey discovered the betrayal, confronted Singh on the sets of GHKKPM, leading to a heated altercation.
Sumit Singh spoke to a leading daily, denying the reports, while Karanvir Bohra, another actor from GHKKPM, confirmed the incident did occur on set. Shagun Pandey, in response, broke his silence and posted a statement on Instagram.
Pandey wrote, “I’m too busy working on my show to play along with these rumors. My silence isn’t fear; it’s just not worth my time. For the record, I was there for a friend in need, plain and simple—who has already cleared the air. The rest? Just noise. What she and I share is sacred and beyond the understanding of some people.”
He added, “Rumors are entertaining, but let’s not forget the cost when they involve real people with real lives (which is beyond the world of reels and drama). It’s important to remember the human side of these stories. And for those filling in gaps without being there, maybe let’s leave the storytelling to the professionals.”
Sumit Singh, in an interview, clarified that she is not dating Shagun Pandey. She explained that they worked together on “Meet Badlegi Duniya Ki Reet” and are family friends. She recounted the incident on the GHKKPM set, mentioning that she was unwell and Pandey showed up as a concerned friend.
Addressing the claims of a disruption, Sumit stated, “I was ready to shoot, even while I was unwell, but the production people asked me to take some rest. The shoot wasn’t hampered because of his presence.”
Sumit also expressed her distress over the rumors, saying, “Reading such horrible things about myself has been upsetting. I have been swamped with messages and calls. It is very disturbing and stressful.”
Karanvir Bohra, in an interview with Times Now, confirmed the spat between Shagun and Sumit, stating that while he wasn’t on set, he inquired about the incident after reading the reports and was told by those present that it did happen. “I was so clueless, I stay away from gossip. But jaisa likha hain, ekdum vaisa hi hua. Something did happen. But I don’t have the habit of getting into things and asking more,” he said.
With Shagun Pandey’s final statement, hopefully, the controversy will gradually settle down.
