Kangana Ranaut-Aditya Pancholi at loggerheads, legal battle on

New Delhi: Bollywood's 'Queen' Kangana Ranaut recently courted several controversies after her explosive interview on a leading channel. What followed was a string of statements and counter-statements flying in the air.

Kangana, in her interview, spoke about her personal life and how she faced immense trauma during her initial struggling days in the film industry. After Aditya Pancholi and his wife Zarina Wahab's name surfaced in the interview, they took the legal route.

According to IANS, Kangana's lawyer, Rizwan Siddiquee, replied to the legal defamation notice sent by Aditya which was in response to the public thrashing by Kangana on a TV channel. 

In her interview, Kangana revealed about the relationship she shared with the actor and the physical and mental trauma she went through.

Siddiquee received the legal notice on September 26 and sent the response on Saturday.

Siddiquee said in a statement: "The defamation notice received by the Advocate representing Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab have been duly replied to. My client who has been a victim of crime has largely spoken about her personal experiences, which were already reported on various media platforms since the year 2007".

"Besides the laws of the land do not give any added advantage to any male person to silence any (victim) woman under the threat of filing defamation proceedings against her," he added.
