Amaal Mallik reacts to sexual harassment allegations on uncle Anu Malik: ‘There is no smoke without fire'
A while ago, music composer Anu Mallik was surrounded amidst controversy due to 'me too' allegations on him. When the 'me too' movement here was at its peak, some women had accused him of inappropriate behaviour. Now Amaal Mallik who is also a composer and Anu's brother Daboo Mallik's son has reacted to these allegations on his uncle. Amaal made it clear that he doesn't share a family-like bond with his uncle. Infact, a few months ago, he had shared a post on social media announcing that he's cut ties with his own parents. Now reacting to allegations on Anu, Amaal said in an interview with Siddharth Kannan, 'I didn't talk or support Anu Malik when he was accused during the MeToo movement. It was not my concern because I don't consider him my family. I was very embarrassed when he was accused of these things. We never had a relationship. But I think if so many people raised their voice against him, I believe there must be some truth to it. Why would people come and say it otherwise? There is no smoke without fire. Five people can't talk against the same person." Talking about their equation, he shared, 'I am respectful towards him when I see him in public. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is it legal?

I haven't met them in years. I don't attend parties. They were invited for Armaan's wedding. They had come too. It is more like professional rivalry." While these allegations were made on Anu, Amaal's father warned him that even he could be accused. He said, 'Once my dad asked me if I too will be dragged in this movement. I said, there is no chance. I can never be the person who will ask for physical favours in return of songs. All the girls worked with me have felt safe."
