While speaking to SpotboyE Rakhi said, “It has nothing to do with me, my legal team will file a defamation suit soon. This is a publicity stunt and our legal team will take action,” Commenting on the dance institute mention in the FIR, Rakesh said, “I invested ₹3 lakhs for the renovation of the institute in 2017. But just before we could open the institute, I had to return to Mumbai for my mother’s stomach operation. Rakhi has nothing to do with all this. She has no clue about the deal.”

According to Rakesh when Rakhi came out from the Bigg Boss 14 house these people have started harassing them again as they wanted to use Rakhi’s fame. Currently, Rakhi’s mother is undergoing cancer treatment. Rakhi’s close friends Kashmera Shah, Sambhavana Seth, Vikas Gupta paid her a visit recently. The actress also hosted a party recently in which we saw the presence of her Bigg Boss friends.
