Bhojpuri star Pawan Singh touches midriff of co-star Anjali Raghav at event; netizens say, 'So creepy'

Pawan Singh one of the top stars of the Bhojpuri industry has been trending on X. One of his videos is going viral. We can see that he is with his co-star, actress Anjali Raghav. They are at an event to promote their new song, Saiyan Sewa Kare. She has worn a dull gold saree that had a belt. Suddenly, Pawan Singh begins to touch her midriff as she is talking to the audience. Anjali Raghav keeps on smiling awkwardly. Pawan Singh tells her that he saw something on her midriff, like an insect and asks her to stay still as he removes it. Anjali Raghav gets a little embarrassed.

The video has gone viral and people are lashing out at him. They said this is absolutely disgusting. Netizens said Pawan Singh did not ask her even once before touching her midriff even if his intention was to remove some insect or something. They said an actor of his stature should be more careful as his fans end up imitating what they see him do at public events. In 2025, the conversation around consent has gained a lot of momentum. While Anjali Raghav did not seem offended, people found it creepy.

One of the top stars of the Bhojpuri industry, he has been in the limelight for his work and personal life. His first wife Neelam committed suicide in 2015 months after their marriage. He said that he has heard the endless speculations about why she died, and considers her demise as a stain on his destiny. He then married Jyoti Kumari in 2018. She filed for separation in 2022 but he did not give her a divorce. His name was linked to Akshara Singh as well. She is a big star of the Bhojpuri film industry. We wonder how Pawan Singh will explain himself on this incident.
