Arshi Khan shocks Pakistan, says she had sex with Shahid Afridi

Staff correspondent, September 8, 2015, NewsCrunch

Little known model and Indian actress Arshi Khan tweeted on Tuesday evening saying she has had sex with Pakistancricketer Shahid Afridi.

She said she did not need permission of Indian media to sleep with someone. “Yes, I had sex with Afridi! For me it was love,” she added.

Arshi Khan, who is from Bhopal, was to play a role in India’s first 4D movie The Last Emperor, last year. She also seems to have acted in a few movies in South and is said to be in the Big Boss 9 shortlist.

Her tweet is likely to hit Shahid Afridi’s Paksitani fans, who are already riled by the rumours of his affair with her, hard.

A few Indian websites have been following the reported affair between Shahid Afridi and Arshi Khan and their exclusives are being picked up by sections of the Pakistani media.

IndyaWire.com had reported a few days ago that it had evidence that Shahid Afridi was meeting Arshi Khan at a luxury hotel in Dubai.  It also said she regularly visited Dubai every 2-3 months to meet him.

Both Shahid Afridi and Arshi Khan had recently denied that they were having any “affair.” Arshi Khan said she was just good friends with the cricketer.

But the issue snowballed into a controversy in Pakistan where Shahid Afridi tries to maintain squeaky clean image.

Arshi Khan was trolled on social media for having designs on Shahid Afridi and three days ago she reportedly filed a complaint with Bhopaland Mumbai police saying she was getting threatening calls, many of them from across the border.

It is not clear what prompted her to go public with her had-sex-with-Afridi tweet, which seems to have come like a bolt from the blue.
