In an interview with ETimes, the actress said, “I went home and mailed the airline about the entire incident and requested them to reveal his identity. But, they told me to go to the police station and file an FIR. They did not reveal his identity. It was only when I called from the Sahar Police Station on October 4 that they revealed his real name. He was taken into custody on October 14. I am very shaken up by the incident. His wife and another male member from the family had come to my residence and requested me to withdraw the complaint. They know my residence address and I fear that somebody might come again.”
