Advocate Karim Ahmed Siddiqui revealed that the organisers are seeking Rs 1 crore in damages for alleged defamation. They are also seeking Rs 20 lakh for financial losses reportedly caused by Anjali's abrupt departure from the event.
According to the organisers, Anjali was expected to be on stage for 45 minutes and give mementoes to sponsors and special guests. However, her early exit from the event allegedly resulted in financial losses and left the guests insulted.
Anjali earlier clarified her reason for leaving the event early, saying she felt unsafe.
Anjali Arora Trolled For Playing Sita
Earlier, the actor was seen playing the role of Sita in Mahakavya Shri Ramayan Katha.
She received a lot of criticism after the teaser of the movie was released.
Anjali said, "People are trolling me that I used to dance, so how can I play the role of Mata Sita? Everyone dances; which actor doesn't dance? I love to dance; it is my hobby. I am not ashamed of it.”
She added that she did not feel sad about the trolling, adding that the audience has the “authority” to like or dislike performances and judge public figures.
