Actor Yuvraj Parashar says he may have withdrawn his molestation charges against filmmaker Onir Anirban, but that does not mean his allegations were false.
Actor Yuvraj Parashar says he may have withdrawn his molestation charges against filmmaker Onir Anirban, but that does not mean his allegations were false.
“I only issued an apology and took my complaint back because the whole episode was becoming dirty and was hurting my family. I thought it was best to resolve the issue between ourselves rather than get into legal hassles. So, we both spoke and decided that we will mutually withdraw our complaints.”
Two weeks ago, Parashar, who debuted in the film Dunno Y..Na Jaane Kyun, had alleged that Onir had invited him to his house on the pretext of watching a film and molested him. Onir had then threatened to sue him for Rs 1 crore. “I have to stay in this industry and make a career. This was the right thing to do,” he says.
