Background
Meesha Shafi was the first one to raise her voice
Ali, who has acted in several Hindi films such as 'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan' and 'Dear Zindagi', found himself in a spot of bother when Meesha Shafi leveled sexual harassment allegations against him. Reacting immediately, he "categorically" denied Shafi's claims and vowed to take the matter through the courts of law.
