“There have been rumours of a non-bailable warrant issued against me floating in the media, without any verification from any authorities since a few days now. This is pure fiction and the work of a rogue individual trying to harass me. I request all media houses, journals and news reporters not to carry this fake news as it is playing into this individual’s agenda to gain publicity,” a part of her statement read.

Sonakshi claimed the man was trying to extort money from her and attack her reputation. Stating that the matter is subjudice, the actor said that her legal team is looking into the matter. She also assured that she is home without any warrants and will not comment any further till the court passes a verdict.

“This man is purely trying to gain some publicity and extort money from me attacking my reputation which I have very proudly built over the years, planting these malicious articles in the media. Kindly do not participate in this harassment charade. This matter is subjudice before the Muradabad court and has been stayed the Allahabad High Court. My legal team will be taking all the necessary action against him for contempt of court. This will be my only comment on this matter until the Muradabad Court has passed its verdict, so please do not approach me for the same. I am home and I can assure you there are no warrants issued against me.”
In a cheeky Instagram story, Sonakshi posted a photo of herself relishing a hot cup of tea, and used the hashtag ‘house arrest’ with the photo.
