Social media influencer Rajshree More, a close friend of actor Rakhi Sawant, has accused the son of a Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) leader of ramming into her car in a drunken state and later threatening her.
Rajshree accused Rahil Javed Shaikh, son of MNS leader Javed Sheikh, of ramming into her car in a drunken state and later threatening her. The alleged incident took place on Sunday night in Mumbai’s Andheri suburb. An FIR has been filed at Mumbai’s Amboli police station .

Rajshree took to social media to share videos and photographs that she claims serve as evidence.
In a video posted on Instagram, Rahil is seen shirtless, verbally abusing and threatening Rajshree in Marathi, using expletives and reportedly declaring, “Bh**od paishe ghe," and “Go and tell the cops I am Javed Shaikh’s son, then you’ll see what happens." He was also seen arguing with the police and allegedly trying to intimidate Rajshree from filing a complaint.
Sharing the video, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Nirupam called it the real face of those who claim to be the protectors of Marathi culture. "A leader’s son from MNS, hurling abuses at a Marathi-speaking woman. On top of that, flaunting his father’s influence. See the real face of those who claim to protect Marathi pride. Are these the same MNS people attacking Hindus under the pressure of Muslims," Nirupam posted on X.
Rajshree also shared a photo of the FIR registered against Rahil, and claimed that MNS workers are now targeting her online, citing her earlier criticism of the local Marathi population and her stand on the language imposition row.
In the last few days, several instances have surfaced of MNS workers assaulting and threatening non-Marathi speakers. Recently, seven MNS members who assaulted a Mumbai shopkeeper for not speaking in Marathi, filmed their brutal attack, and shared it online were released within hours of being detained, according to NDTV.
