Earlier, Richa also said that Payal Ghosh refused to take delivery of a legal notice she sent her on Monday.

Richa also uploaded the soft copy of the legal notice on her Insta account.

 

She wrote, “soft copy of the legal notice has been sent to Ms. Ghosh. My person along with a person from my lawyers office, went to hand deliver the hard copy of the notice to her residence, which she/representative refused to take delivery of . We have their refusal on video.”

Earlier on Saturday, Payal Ghosh accused Bollywood Director Anurag Kashyap of sexual harassment. She also said the filmmaker made her feel "uncomfortable."

"He made me feel uncomfortable. I felt bad about it, whatever happened should not have happened. If someone approaches you for work, it does not mean the person is prepared for anything," she told ANI on Sunday.

However, responding to sexual assault allegations by the actress, Kashyap termed it as "baseless".
