“Ever since the promo of the film came out, rumours have spread and Shah has been harassed in his own locality. His leg was fractured from being hit. His relatives are also suffering as they are now being known as coming from a ‘prostitute family’,” Shah’s lawyer told the outlet.
He also stated that they may possibly file a criminal complaint against the makers for ‘defamation, indecent representation of ladies, and circulation of obscene and indecent material.’
The defendants have to respond to the allegations levelled against them by January 7.
