An alleged rape and sexual assault case was filed against television actor Pearl V Puri by a 17-year-old old minor today. The actor, along with five others accused were arrested by the police and are being remanded in custody by the Vasai court.
Talking about the same, producer Ekta Kapoor came out in support of Pearl, revealing details of a conversation she had with the minor girl’s mother. She shared that the mother spoke of how it was a false allegation by the father of the girl, only to get full custody of the daughter and prove her to be an unfit working mother, who isn’t equipped to take care of the daughter. Ekta shared, “Will I support a child molester…or a molester of any kind? But what I witnessed from last night to now, was the absolute low in human depravity. How can humanity go to this level? How can people who are upset with each other, drag a third person into their own fight? My opinion only comes from what the girl’s mother said to me last night & that is - Pearl is innocent …and it is very very sad if people are using various tactics to prove working mothers are unable to take care of their children, because there are predators on the set.”
Ekta further added that she has messages and voice notes from the mother to prove her narrative, “I have all the voice notes and messages between the child’s mother and me which clearly points to the false allegations being put on Pearl. The film industry is as safe or as unsafe as any other business. To give it a bad name to get your agenda sorted is the lowest form of low ever. “
Anita Hassnandani also posted a picture with Pearl and wrote, “Woke up to some nonsensical news bout @pearlvpuri I know him! It is NOT true ... canNOT be true.... all lies.I’m sure there is more to it. And the truth will be out soon.”
