Richa Chadha To Take Legal Action Against Payal Ghosh For Dragging Her Name In Anurag Kashyap Controversy

Richa Chadha, Payal Ghosh & Anurag Kashyap

Actress Payal Ghosh recently accused Anurag Kashyap of sexual harassment and while doing so she also named several other actresses like Richa Chadha, Mahie Gill and Huma Qureshi and accused them of giving sexual favours to Anurag. Now, Richa has decided to take legal action against Payal.

A statement released by Richa's lawyer reads:

Our Client 'Ms. Richa Chadda', condemns the act of her name being unnecessarily and falsely dragged in a defamatory manner into controversies and allegations being recently raised by third parties.

Though our Client believes that genuinely wronged women should get justice at all costs, some legislations are intended to ensure that women have equal standing in their workplace and to ensure that they have a cordial workplace in which their dignity and self-respect is protected.

No woman can be allowed to misuse their liberties to harass other women with unsubstantiated or non-existent, false and baseless allegations.

Our Client has initiated appropriate legal action and shall further pursue her legal rights and remedies in law as may be advised in her best interest.
