The actress shifted to Mumbai in 2014 and knew Morani’s family. It was in 2015, when Morani came over to her place with a bottle of wine and forced her to drink.

"Next thing I know, I wake up at 4am. I was numb and shocked. Physically and mentally, I was in a state of shock. Karim was not there. I saw there were marks on my body when I woke up,” she recounted.

“I found the courage and called him next day. I confronted him and asked him - what did you do to me? I told him I'd call his wife and brother. He just laughed over the phone. Can't forget that laughter. I felt helpless. I was 21,” the actress continued.

She revealed that later Morani started blackmailing her by saying, "I'll get you killed by the underworld." She further said that Morani allegedly harassed her several times afterwards using her pictures as a ploy.

“The after effects were that I stopped talking to people, stopped working, became a recluse. It wasn't just one time. He came over a couple of times more. It was 12th Sept 2015 and he calls me and says I want you to come here. I was scared he'd circulate my nude pictures to family. He sneaked me into the room. He didn't even let me leave."

It did not happen once but multiple times. No one supported her or backed her up.
