Payal’s partner Sangram Singh shared a series of posts on Twitter and alleged that the chairman and few committee members ‘threatened her publicly’. He claimed that they filed a false case against the actress.
“This was the matter against her, it was false Fir to save their self. Truth can face problems but can't be defeated,” Sangram tweeted.
The wrestler, while talking exclusively to ABP News, had claimed the society raised objection over Payal making video inside the house and in the premises of the building. He alleged that the society demanded Rs 5 lakh from her family as development charge, which became the reason for dispute.
