A while ago Anu was hitting the headlines as NCW has closed the case filed against him due to lack of substantial evidence and communication from the complainant.
As soon as this news starting doing rounds on all the entertainment portal Sona immediately took to her Twitter handle and wrote, “Please note India, this is untrue. I have painstakingly collated all the multiple testimonies of several women & mailed the same to NCW. Requested to talk to the chairperson. Only received terse & unkind one-liners in return from them. Zero concern & no real interest in women.”
