While Sachin-Jigar have been behind a string of successful film soundtracks like Stree, Stree 2, Bhediya, the allegations mark a serious blow to their reputation. Since the rise of the #MeToo movement in India, several names in the entertainment industry have faced scrutiny for misconduct, and this case adds to the growing list. Earlier, the duo had been mentioned in harassment allegations; however they were not formally charged at that time.
