Sohail Khan surprised everyone by entering Alliance as a wild card contestant. The Bollywood actor has gradually emerged as one of the strongest players on the reality show. Hosted by Kunal Kemmu, Alliance premiered in June this year on Amazon Prime Video. In one of the recent episodes, Sohail said that he is against ragging. While interacting with Arslan Goni, Aly Goni and Ruhee Dosani, Khan mentioned that he has even told his children (Nirvaan and Yohan) not to feel shy or embarrassed to speak up if someone bullies them. The actor further recalled being s*xually harassed when he was young.
Sohail Khan on being s*xually harassed
During a conversation with his co-contestants, Sohail shared, “I was s*xually harassed by somebody when I was young and I kept that within me for years. When I grew up and became an adult, I confided in my father (Salim Khan). The Bollywood actor also recalled his father questioning him for keeping the fact hidden for many years.

To this, Sohail apologised to his father and admitted that he was embarrassed to say it. The actor stated that he felt ‘ashamed’ even though he wasn’t at fault. And that’s the reason he keeps telling his sons, Nirvaan and Yohan, to tell him everything no matter what happens. For the unversed, Sohaili is blessed with two boys from his first marriage to Seema Khan. Interestingly, the reality star is a part of Alliance too.
When Sohail Khan wanted to name his son ‘Ram Khan’
On Alliance, Sohail had recently revealed that he wanted to name his elder son, While interacting with Aly, the actor recalled the time his ex-wife Seema was expecting their first child. At that time, the duo had jokingly decided that if they are blessed with a boy, he would choose a name and if they had a girl, Seema would name her.
“I wanted to name my son Ram Khan. We are very secular that way. When Seema came into consciousness after giving birth, she had also thought of a name in her mind,” he shared. The reality star later asked Sohail how Nirvaan was doing. “She said it in a way I didn’t want to change after that,” the actor mentioned.
Meanwhile, Sohail and Seema were married for 24 years before they decided to get divorced. On the work front, Sohail has done several Bollywood films, while his ex-wife has been a part of Netflix series The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives.
