“Because of Sajid Khan, I lost out on two projects,” Rayya Labib recounts those ‘horrible days’

MUMBAI: According to actor Rayya Labib who recently opened up about her ‘horrible experience’ with filmmaker Sajid Khan about 10 years ago, said she lost out on two projects because of Sajid Khan.

“I was so disturbed because of that incident. I felt my body was not complete and not adequate for the film industry. I used to silently sit down and cry for hours. I did not have the guts to share or discuss my thoughts with anyone else. I was just about 18 or even a few months younger and had come to Mumbai to look for work in the film industry. I went into depression and lost out on two acting projects, merely because a big director like Sajid Khan told me I was not suitable for Bollywood because of ‘small breasts’, Rayya told this reporter.

She said the Bigg Boss 16 contestant had several years ago suggested the name of a well-known cosmetic surgeon at Bandra in Mumbai for bust enhancement and stated that he would give her a role one of his films, if she got her breasts enlarged.

“Sajid seems to have an infatuation with women’s bust. He seems to have told several women to get their bust enlarged. He told me I will never get work with a small bust. According to him, a huge bust was a prerequisite to getting work in the film industry,” Rayya said, adding that Sajid told me that with small busts I could not get work in Bollywod.

Rayya Labib hails from Nalbari, Assam where she was born on 11th February 1996. After finishing her schooling, she went to Guwahati for higher education and also came to Mumbai for modeling and acting assignments now and then.

She completed her schooling and college in Assam with her schooling in Nalbari where she was very active in cultural activities and also did modeling and ramp shows in nearby towns.

After completing her education, she moved to Mumbai permanently where she is now based, but often travels to Assam to meet her family.

In Mumbai, she started with print shoots and smaller modeling assignments doing various campaigns and even episodic roles in serials like CID, Crime Patrol and the like.
