Anurag served food when we 1st met at his house: Actress who alleged he harassed her

MUMBAI: Responding to sexual assault allegations by actress Payal Ghosh, Bollywood director Anurag Kashyap termed it as "baseless". "Wow, it took so long to try to silence me. You lied so much in this effort and also dragged other women despite you being a woman. Have some dignity madam! I will just say that all your allegations are baseless," Kashyap tweeted in Hindi.

He said, "In the process of accusing me, you also dragged the Bachchan family and my artists, but you failed. I married twice. If it is a crime, then I accept it. I also admit that I have loved a lot whether it was my first wife, my second wife, or any lover, or any other woman I have worked with."
