On Thursday (June 22), model Sagarika Shona Suman claimed that she has been receiving death and rape threats following her revelations about Raj Kundra. The model had accused Kundra of forcing her to participate in nude auditions.
In a video statement, Suman emphasised, “I am disturbed and depressed because I am getting calls from different online platforms. They are threatening me. I am getting threats of death and rape. People are calling me from different numbers and asking me what wrong has Raj Kundra done.” She says she has been receiving abusive calls on Whatsapp and Messenger apps. The actress added, “They are threatening me and accusing me of shutting down their business. They even said that you people watch porn films that’s why we are making it.”
The model said that she is fearful about her life and will file a police complaint on Friday (July 23). Suman has conceded that Raj Kundra asked her to audition for a web series in the nude. She said, “In August 2020, I got a call from Umesh Kamat, who offered me a web series produced by Kundra. When I joined the video call, he demanded a nude audition that I refused. Kundra had ties with a London-based company that streamed porn on a mobile app called ‘Hotshots.’
