Shilpa Shinde on being expelled from CINTAA: Very happy that I am no longer a part of it
Shilpa Shinde expelled from the Cine And TV Artistes' Association (CINTAA).
Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai fame Shilpa Shinde has been expelled from the Cine And TV Artistes' Association (CINTAA). The decision was taken at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) which was held on Monday.
What is interesting more here is that Shilpa had contested in CINTAA's annual polls held a few weeks ago and was elected as one of the members of the Executive Committee. However, the association unanimously decided to expel her at the AGM meet.
A leading daily quoted a source saying, "Now that she has been expelled, she won't be allowed to avail any facilities that CINTAA provides its members with.“
Actor Sushant Singh, general secretary and spokesperson, CINTAA confirmed the news to a leading daily. "After the general body was apprised of the whole case and Shilpa was given a fair chance to present her side, the majority voted in favour of her expulsion. She did not adhere to the rules and regulations of CINTAA and constantly engaged in defamatory activities against the association and its executive committee members. She is free to work wherever she wants to, but the association is not willing to take her responsibility," he said.
When Shilpa was asked about this expulsion, she said, "After being selected in the committee, I was expelled overnight. So, who is afraid of whom? Having said that, I am very happy that I am no longer a part of CINTAA. They never stand by an artiste or their rights. No membership means less mess.“
Shilpa had hit headlines earlier this year after she had accused the producer of her former show Sanjay Kohli of sexually harassing her during her stint on the show. Following this, Sanjay and his wife Binaifer had filed a criminal defamation against Shilpa.
