Actor Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra filed a defamation suit of Rs 50 crore against Sherlyn Chopra on Tuesday.

Five days ago, on October 14, Bollywood actor Sherlyn Chopra had filed a complaint against Raj Kundra and Shilpa Shetty for allegedly committing fraud against her and mental harassment. While addressing the media at the Juhu police station, Sherlyn had said, "I have filed a complaint to register FIR against Raj Kundra for sexual harassment, cheating and criminal intimidation."

In a press conference, Sherlyn Chopra said, "unhone mujko underworld ki dhumki di. Aapko acchi tarah yaad hona chahiye, aapne mere saath yaun shoshan kiya. Ladkio se jism ki numaish karwake aap unki payment clear kyun nhi karte? Aap unko chuna kyu lagate hai. Artist ke ghar pe jaa kar, usse under world ki dhumko dete hai. Bolte hai yaun shoshan ka case wapas le warna teri zindagi barbaad hojayegi."

Sherlyn revealed that she had approached the Juhu police station on April 14, 2021, to file a sexual assault case against Raj Kundra. On April 19, she claimed, Raj Kundra forcibly entered her house and threatened her to withdraw the case. She said, "unhone muje underworld ki dhumki di, aur kai saari dhamkiaa di. Daraya dhamkaya. Main ek single woman hu. Akeli rehti hu me darr gayi thi. Aaj himmat jutakar wapas ayi hu." Sherlyn Chopra disclosed that she had appeared at the Juhu police station on April 20, 2021, to take her case against Raj Kundra back. 

Levelling further allegations against Raj Kundra, Sherlyn Chopra said that on March 27, 2019, Kundra had visited her house late at night and he sexually assaulted her. On March 29, she said, she had to do a photoshoot under pressure with Kundra. Sherlyn then alleged that for the next 10 months Raj Kundra pursued her to associate with his other firm JL Stream and was asked to upload fitness-related content. 

On related news, businessman Raj Kundra was arrested by police on July 19 along with 11 other people on charges related to the alleged creation of pornographic films. Raj was granted bail on September 20 by a Mumbai Court in the pornography case on a surety of Rs 50,000.
