Sooraj Pancholi speaks about the ongoing court case: 

The actor claiming that the only reason he has been silent is because he respects the family, and understands what all of them have been through. Hitting out at the media and calling them 'irresponsible', he said "They only care about their TRPs. There are times when I’m in court and things have been in my favour and a lot of journalists were there. I asked them, ‘Will you write this?’ They told me they won’t because it’s a positive story and it won’t track. It’s unfair but I also believe in time.”
