The rift between Sherlyn Chopra and director Rupesh Paul of
‘Kamasutra 3D’ appears to have widened after the Bollywood actress
lodged a police complaint against him.In a written complaint addressed
to the Santacruz police, actress Sherlyn Chopra alleged that Paul did
not pay the remaining Rs seven lakh, of her total remuneration. She
alleged that Paul had threatened to forfeit her remaining remuneration
for the movie ‘Kamasutra 3D’, after she rejected his sexual advances,
the police said.
The Santacruz police has begun a preliminary inquiry against director
Rupesh Paul after Sherlyn’s complaint. However, senior inspector Arun
Chavan said that the actress did not turn up at the Santacruz police
station to record her statement despite repeated requests. “We requested
her to reach the police station and record her statement several times,
but she did not come, stating that she has been busy,” Chavan told .
When contacted, the actress claimed that she was occupied with prior
commitments due to which she could not go to the police station. “Either
tonight or tomorrow, I will go to the police station to record my
statement,” Sherlyn Chopra told .
Earlier this month, Sherlyn Chopra had dissociated herself from the
movie ‘Kamasutra 3D’, which is expected to hit theatres by May.
“Allegedly, Paul threatened to use her nude footage as porn in the
global commercial porn market and not in the ‘Kamasutra 3D’ movie. Paul
said that he would replace Sherlyn Chopra with another actress in the
film,” another police officer said, quoting the actress.
The actress also claimed that the director had sent her vulgar and
obscene email, besides abusing her, the police said. Meanwhile, except
the charge about that Rs seven lakh were yet to be paid to actress,
director Rupesh Paul has denied all other allegations.
“The payment was to be made in four parts. The fourth part (of Rs
seven lakh) was to be paid, after she came for dubbing. (But) now that
she has said that she is not doing the movie and would not do dubbing,
what should we pay her for,” Paul told , reacting to her allegations. He
has claimed that he is quite stunned that the actress has alleged
sexual advances and that he would use her nude footage as porn.
“She is a liar. These allegations are baseless. She used to call me
‘Appa’ and ‘Captain’. She used to touch my feet before shooting. The
fact is that she mentally tortured us a lot. She was too demanding and
she made the crew wait for hours on the sets. It was hell working with
her. It was because of the producers that I had to adjust with her,”
Paul said.
He revealed that whenever they went to various film festivals to
promote ‘Kamasutra 3D’, Chopra listed her demands like luxury class
tickets and expensive clothes. Paul said that it was Sherlyn Chopra who
had uploaded a nude video of herself online, after which she was removed
from the film.
Later, she apologised and then the filmmakers took her on board
again, he said. He denied that he had sent her abusive emails. “I have
all the evidence I have never sent her such messages or emails,” he
said.
