Shahi’s post comes after Rupali slapped Esha with a legal notice, seeking Rs 50 crore in damages. Esha Verma, the daughter of Ashwin, has accused the actress of having an extramarital affair with her father. In her now-deleted video, Verma even mentioned feeling "unsafe" around Rupali. Following the Rs 50 crore defamation suit, Esha Verma deleted all defamatory posts aimed at the actress. She also made her Instagram account private.
Rupali Ganguly's Rs 50 crore defamation notice to Esha Verma
The legal notice sent to Esha by Ganguly's lawyer Sana Raes Khan was in response to the several accusations the former made against the actress publicly. The notice mentioned that the actress also seeks compensation of Rs 50 crore. In the notice, it has been mentioned that Rupali underwent mental trauma because of which she had to seek medical assistance and that she was humiliated on set and lost professional opportunities.
It is also said that Ganguly wanted to maintain a 'dignified silence' but was compelled to initiate the defamation notice because of how her and Ashwin Verma's 11-year-old son was dragged.
Ganguly, through her lawyer, has claimed compensation of Rs 50 crore, which her stepdaughter is liable to pay. She has also asked for an unconditional public apology immediately, failing which Ganguly has threatened legal measures.
In the notice, it was clarified that Rupali was friends with Ashwin Verma for 12 years, before he separated from his second wife, Esha Verma's mother, in 2009. It was also said that the actress, along with her now husband, tried to help Esha get a break into the entertainment industry, by providing opportunities for photoshoots and making special arrangements for auditions.
