The 46-year-old Bollywood star explained how the past few days have been challenging for the Kundra family with “a lot of rumours and accusations… unwarranted aspersions on me… a lot of trolling/questions posed… not only to me but also to my family.”
Saying that she has full faith in the Indian judiciary, Shetty added that she will be sticking to her celeb philosophy throughout the trial: “Never complain, never explain.”
According to the Hungama 2 actor, the Kundra family is committed to accessing the best legal remedies, but till then, Shetty requested, “…As a mother – to respect our privacy for my children’s sake and request you to refrain from commenting on half-baked information without verifying the veracity of the same.”

“I am a proud law-abiding Indian citizen and a hardworking professional for the last 29 years. People have put their faith in ME & I’ve never let anyone down. So, most importantly, I request you to respect my family’s and ‘my right’ to privacy in these times. We don’t deserve a media trial. Please let the law take its course,” she concluded.
Earlier this week, it was reported by the Times of India that Shetty had filed a legal case against defamatory online content following Kundra’s arrest.
According to the Indian legal news outlet Bar and Bench, Shilpa Shetty has not just filed a complaint against several media houses but also against defamatory content being published on social media sites including Facebook and Instagram.
