Sherlyn Chopra, who had accused Raj Kundra of sexual assault, has now posted a video addressing his wife and Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty. With folded hands, Sherlyn had captioned the video, “I request you to show some sympathy towards the female victims. There is no harm in admitting one’s mistakes.”
She questioned Shilpa for praising Rani Laxmi Bai while judging the dance reality show, Super Dancer Chapter 4. In the video, Sherlyn said that it makes her wonder if Shilpa had any sympathy for the helpless victims in Raj’s case, who bravely recorded their statements at police stations. She also claimed that Shilpa’s followers on social media had been trolling her, saying that the pictures posted by her are photoshopped.
Sherlyn added, “But let me tell you that all the investigating agencies of the country are much more educated than you, me and your followers.” She pointed out one of Shilpa’s recent posts on Instagram that spoke about faith. Shilpa has been sharing cryptic messages related to invoking faith and positivity on Instagram. Citing the same, Sherlyn expressed, “I feel that belief is such a powerful force that it can spread the light even in the most hopeless situations.” She signed off her video message requesting Shilpa, as a woman, to help the girls in seeking justice.
Earlier, Sherlyn Chopra appeared before the Mumbai Crime Branch’s Property Cell to record her statement. In her complaint, the actress revealed that in early 2019, Sherlyn alleged that Raj Kundra started kissing her even though she resisted. Reportedly, the businessman landed at her place over an argument related to a text message.
She also claimed that she did not want to get involved with a married man or mix business with pleasure. To which Shilpa Shetty’s husband told her his relationship with his wife was complicated and he was stressed most of the time at home.
Last month, a court had rejected the pre-arrest bail application filed by Sherlyn Chopra. In her plea, Chopra had said she apprehended arrest in the case registered under IPC sections 292, 293 (sale of obscene material), as well as relevant provisions the Information Technology Act and the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act.
