Bhojpuri superstar Pawan Singh is once again at the centre of controversy, this time due to a video that surfaced during the promotional event of his recently released song Saiya Seva Kare . The track, which also features actress Anjali Raghav, has been trending on YouTube.
However, the promotional activities for the song have taken an unexpected turn after a clip from the event went viral, drawing criticism from fans and social media users.
Pawan Singh touches Anjali Raghav’s waist during Saiya Seva Kare promotions
In a video going viral on social media, Pawan Singh and Anjali Raghav are seen standing together on stage. Anjali, dressed in a shimmery golden saree, is speaking into a mic, while Pawan, clad in a white coat and black t-shirt, stands beside her. Midway through the event, Singh is seen placing his hand on Anjali’s waist, not once, but twice. The actress appears visibly uncomfortable in the video, although she does not directly react. While some speculate that Pawan may have been looking at something specific on her attire, the gesture has not gone down well with the public.

Netizens slam actor for his inappropriate behaviour
The video has gone viral on social media, with netizens expressing outrage over what many view as inappropriate behaviour. Comments range from disappointment to outright condemnation. One user remarked, “This man will never improve,” while another stated, “Consent is a basic thing; how can anyone touch another person without asking?”
A user shared the video on Instagram, writing, “Pawan Singh keeps crossing the line. Remember when actress Akshara Singh made serious allegations against him? He has a pattern. And yes, the woman here should also have spoken up.”
Pawan Singh’s controversies
This is not the first time Pawan Singh has been embroiled in such controversy. The actor-singer has previously faced allegations of inappropriate behaviour, most notably from fellow actress Akshara Singh, who accused him of harassment and misconduct. These repeated incidents have led many to question the industry’s tolerance for such behaviour.
