Sohail Khan, superstar Salman Khan's youngest brother, and builder Ashish Raheja nearly came to blows at Olive bar in Khar, a famed hangout for Bollywooders,models and socialites, on Thursday night last week, says a media report.
Sohail Khan was seated at his table with his sisters-in-law, Amrita and Mallaika, while a table adjacent to his was occupied by his sister Arpita.
A few minutes later, Ashish Raheja came in and settled at a table next to Arpita's. His entourage allegedly grew bigger and louder as the night proceeded, and, at one point,
Ashish allegedly even dropped his drink on Arpita by mistake. Says an eyewitness, “Ashish dropped his drink on Arpita's dress.
When Arpita questioned him about his behaviour, Ashish caught hold of her face and told her that he can buy her family out. An altercation thus followed between sohail,who stepped in, and Ashish. There was a big commotion at Olive, following which Ashish was asked to leave the premises.”
When contacted, Sohail Khan confirmed the story.
When the newspaper asked Sohail if he beat up Ashish, he replied, “No, I did not. Dhakka-dhukki hui bas.” However, on pressing further, he gave some details on how the flash point was reached. “At first I let it pass. However, when Arpita got very uncomfortable with Ashish's entourage dancing around her table, I was forced to step,especially when he retorted with the comment that he could buy out Arpita's table.”
Ashish Raheja refused to take our calls. His PR agency told us that he is not traceable.
