Choreographer Shiamak Davar has been accused for sexual abuse by his former dance students Percy Shroff and Jimmy Mistry. However, the choreographer denies the allegations.
Percy and Jimmy from North Vancouver, say they suffered years of unwanted sexual touching at the hands of Shiamak, who they say, abused his authority as their spiritual leader to control all aspects of their lives.
They have said that the choreographer is a sexually abusive and controlling leader of a VRRP Spiritual Learning group. Two lawsuits have been filed in the Canadian province of British Columbia Supreme Court.
Denying the allegations, Shiamak said, "I’m shocked by these allegations and deny them completely. I will not be intimidated into silence and will defend myself vigorously in court."
"Even though I’m extremely anxious to speak the truth, I have been advised not to do so publicly by my lawyer, David Crossin, as this matter is now before the court,” He added
He further said, "It is a privilege and honour for me to continue the work of my spiritual teacher, Khorshed Bhavnagri".
VRRP follows the teachings of Bhavnagari, who wrote ‘The Laws of the Spirit World’.
"It is my position, as filed in my response, that these claims are being made by former members of VRRP Spiritual Learning to simply smear Mrs. Bhavnagri’s good name and her wonderful book ‘The Laws of the Spirit World’. I would like members of VRRP Spiritual Learning to be rest assured that I will continue to serve the book and its teachings,” Shiamak said.

On Friday, the Gujarat High Court quashed a criminal complaint against Aamir Khan and four others in a case of alleged shooting of Chinkara, in their film ‘Lagaan’ without permission from the concerned officials during the film’s shooting in 2000.
After the arguments, Acting Chief Justice VM Sahai quashed the criminal proceedings against Aamir khan, his ex-wife Reena Dutta, director Ashutosh Gowariker, executive director Srinivas Rao and cinematographer Ashok Mehta.
The lawyer who represented Aamir, said, “Except the movie there is no evidence that there has been killing of Chinkara. There has to be some legal evidence to book someone. Except a scene from the movie there is no proof in the complaint that Chinkara was shot.”
“The entire allegation is based upon a scene of the film “Lagaan” which cannot, by any stretch of imagination, be said to be a legal evidence of possession of the animal in question viz Chinkara,” one of the previous court orders stated.
Pankaj Khandpar, ex creative director of Western Outdoor Media Technologies, in a statement stated, “The entire sequence was by way of special effects and that no real animals have ever been used
