In pic: Adil Khan and Rakhi Sawant
Adil Khan Durrani, Rakhi Sawant's ex-husband, who was in judicial custody following multiple accusations from the actress, has revealed his side of the story in a tell-all interview. This is the first time that he has broken his silence over the allegations. In a long conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Adil Khan claimed that the allegations against him are false.
Adil shared in the interview, "Women like Rakhi are dangerous even to talk to. They can do anything. Our Constitution has been protecting women in a way that even if they scream rape, we get arrested."
Adil accused Rakhi of lying about never marrying Ritesh Singh, her ex-husband. Adil claimed that she had not divorced Ritesh when she married him. He further said that Rakhi used to tell the public that he was 7 years older than her, when, in fact, he is 27 years old and the actress is 19 years older than him.
Adil then mentioned the video of him confessing that he took Rs 1.5 crore from her and said, "Ek tablet di thi Rakhi ne, she had literally drugged me. Mujhe aisa nasha jaise feel ho raha tha. Usne ye bhi allegations lagaya tha ki Adil drugs leta hai. Main soya hu aur utha hu aur mujhe kuch samajne nahi aa raha tha. Jo jo sawaal puch raha tha main uska jawab de raha hu aur mera sir bohot zyada dhukh raha hai (I was feeling intoxicated. She has accused me of taking drugs. I wasn't aware whether I was awake or asleep. I was replying to whatever I was asked and my head was hurting a lot)."

He then showed a video of himself chewing the tablet. "It looks like I'm drowsy, and I'm eating some tablets, and I have some tablets in my hand. I'm not in my senses because I don't know what is happening," Adil continued.
Adil Durrani also accused his ex-wife of recording him naked over a video call. Adil went on to say that Rakhi used the same tactic while falsely accusing him of having extramarital affairs with other women and sexually abusing an Iranian woman.
Adil revealed that he will take counter-legal action against Rakhi. "I'll fight for justice. I won't spare her. I want justice from the people and the Constitution, so that next time, Rakhi doesn't trap another man like this. Whatever Sherlyn Chopra has said about Rakhi, it's a fact," Adil said in the interview.
