The Matter
Tension started when actress Payal Rohatgi attended the general meeting of the society without invitation and when members objected her. According to the society Chairman Doctor Parag Shah an eye specialist, she was staying in the society with her parents.
“Payal Rohatgi has been staying with her parents at their flat of our society for the past one and a half years. On June 20, we had an annual general meeting in which Rohatgi appeared without invitation to which we objected stating that the flat is under the name of her parents and her presence is not needed since her mother is already present in the meeting. To this, Rohatgi replied in an indecent language and threatened to kill me. She then started recording video on her mobile phone to threaten the society members and after they objected, she started abusing them as well,” said Shah in his police complaint as quoted by The Indian Express.
In the complaint, it was also alleged that, the actress was putting indecent remarks agsinst the residents of society since March.
“Then she posted indecent and extreme message in the society’s WhatsApp group. She has been posting indecent comments against society residents on her Instagram handle since March as she had recently commented against few society members who are having 5-6 children that they don’t know about family planning. She had also posted about me stating that I am a ruffian. She had also threatened society’s kids saying that if they play infront of her house, she will break their heads. She keeps threatening society members saying that she will get them framed in false police cases,” added Shah as quoted by The Indian Express.
