This comes after Ekta Kapoor took to Instagram sharing a long note and demanding justice for the Naagin 3 actor. She also claimed that she spoke to the complainant’s family and that they also admit that Pearl is innocent. ”Pearl was not involved and it’s her husband trying to create stories to keep her child and prove that a working mother on a set cannot take care of her kid,” she had written. Ekta’s post had also irked netizens on Saturday, who then took to Twitter attacking her for making ‘false allegations.’
