“Life has knocked me down a few times, it showed me things I never wanted to see. I experienced sadness and failures. But one thing for sure, I always get up! ThankYouAll# ForTheLove#ForThePrayers,” she wrote on Instagram.

The 30-year-old actress, who has worked in more than 75 movies, was allegedly abducted on the way from Thrissur to Kochi on the night of February 17. The criminals took pictures and videos to blackmail her before letting her go.

Six persons, including prime accused ‘Pulsar’ Suni and his five accomplices, have been arrested by the police.

In her complaint, the actor said Sunil Kumar told her to “co-operate” as they were doing a “quotation work”. He also threatened to inject her with drugs and take her to a secret hideout, she said.

The accused had forced their way into the actress’ vehicle and later escaped at a busy area here.

Several actors, including Bollywood stars, and politicians had expressed solidarity with the actress and sought stringent action against the culprits.
