Yesterday, another fresh controversy emerged in Bollywood as actress Luviena Lodh accused filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and his family of harassing her.
Luviena had alleged that her husband Sumit Sabharwal (Mahesh Bhatt’s nephew) supplied drugs to actors like Amyra Dastur, Sapna Pabbi due to which she had filed for a divorce.
Lodh had also alleged that Mahesh Bhatt was aware of it, and had even called him ‘the biggest don’ in the industry, in her Instagram video.
Mahesh Bhatt’s lawyer had then issued a statement on Friday evening which stated that they will be taking legal action against Luviena for making false accusations against the filmmaker and his family. The counsel had refuted all allegations as false and defamatory.
Even Issaq Actress Amyra Dastur’s legal counsel responded to the drug allegations made against her, refuting them as ‘ ‘completely false, unfounded and malicious’. It also said that Amyra will be considering legal remedies against such accusations.
The statement read : “We refer to the statement in relation to our Client ‘Ms. Amyra Dastur’ AKA ‘Ms. Amy Dastur’ with the video recently released by one Ms. Luviena Lodh. Accordingly on instructions and on behalf of our client, it is clarified that the said video contains false statements relating to our client and that our client is convinced that the same is published with an aim to defame and cause harm, injury and damage to the reputation of our client,”
“Our client completely refutes all such statements referring to her in the said video as being completely false, unfounded and malicious and further reserves her right to seek all remedies available to her in law and equity. Our client also states that it is very unfortunate when individuals resort to such unfounded attacks and condemns the same,” the statement added.
