Bollywood's Well-known Hairstylist Sapna Bhavnani revealed through her Facebook post that she was gangraped in Chicago at the age of 24.
It's through 'Humans of Bombay' which allows people to share their experiences, Sapna said: "After my father's death, I moved to Chicago where there were so many like me and it gave me the freedom to get inked, experiment with my hair and just be myself. One Christmas Eve in Chicago, I walked out of a bar alone, late at night, in a short dress and red lipstick. I was 24 and had been drinking, when from a dumpster a group of guys walked up to me and put a gun to my head. This eventually led to a gang rape. I remember walking home, showering and pushing this incident to the back of my mind for years and never letting it break my spirit, I still wear short dresses and the brightest red on my lips. But I just want to say this - no one wants to be beaten up, get raped or sell their bodies. It took me 20 years to voice my experiences".
Sapna Bhavnani who is currently 44 acted in films such as 'Ugly Aur Pagli' and 'Pyaar Ka Side Effects'. She shot to fame after her verbal spat with Salman Khan on the Bigg Boss show. A-List actors Katrina Kaif, John Abraham and Bipasha Basu are her clients. Even Indian skipper MS Dhoni prefers Sapna whenever he wishes to change his hairstyle.
