New Delhi, 15 December 2021

As per news report of NDTV, Mr Kundra, who is the husband of Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty, had moved the Supreme Court after the Bombay High Court, on November 25, refused his plea for anticipatory bail. Mr Kundra had said in the petition before the High Court that the videos, although erotic, did not actually show any physical or sexual activity. He further said he had not been involved in the making or broadcasting of such videos; he claimed he had been wrongly implicated in the case. The High Court, in the same case, also rejected anticipatory bail applications from five others accused in the original porn films case from last year. These included actors Poonam Pandey and Sherlyn Chopra.
