The long-standing feud between Kangana Ranaut and Aditya Pancholi is getting murkier by the day. The Versova police has opened an investigation against Aditya after receiving a complaint on e-mail from Kangana’s sister Rangoli Chandel on April 9, which reportedly alleges that the actress was subjected to assault and exploitation by Aditya a decade ago. In turn, Aditya has filed a counter complaint claiming that Kangana's lawyer had threatened to file a rape case against him. When BT contacted the Versova police station, they confirmed that they were in receipt of the complaints.

When we reached out to Aditya, he said, “My wife (Zarina Wahab) and I filed a defamation case against Kangana and her sister Rangoli in September 2017, after she gave interviews alleging that I did this and that to her (abuse).” The actor went on to add that Kangana's lawyer Rizwan Siddiquee pressurised him to withdraw the defamation case and he has a recording of their conversation. Aditya said, “I recorded his conversation and submitted it to the court on April 10. The case was on and I told the honourable judge in my statement that this lawyer had threatened to file a rape case against me in January. I got the pen drive (with the videos of his conversation) verified under the Indian Evidence Act. I have a certificate which proves that the videos are not doctored. I have submitted the evidence with the certificate at the Versova police station, and given an application to investigate the videos that I have submitted.” While Bombay Times has a copy of the application submitted by Aditya to the cops, we haven't been able to verify his claims. We also reached out to Kangana, her sister Rangoli and their lawyer, but they did not respond till the time of going to press.
