Kangana Ranaut recently went for hearing for the defamation case filed against her by Javed Akhtar.  However, her lawyer countered Javed Akhtar by filing a case against her for alleged extortion and criminal intimidation. According to reports, Kangana alleged that during her spat with Hrithik Roshan, Akhtar called her sister and her to his house at Juhu. She was subsequently threatened and forced to write an apology.

Ranaut’s plea against Javed Akhtar says, “The said accused even had the audacity to then force me to tender a written apology to my said co-star, thus, forcefully seeking to create a document in favour of my co-star.” The plea further says, “The accused through his acts of crimes has thus wilfully caused me immense mental torture and trauma which still continues to have a disturbing effect on my mind”.

Kangana’s plea revealed she was threatened with critical consequences for indulging in a public fight with her “most powerful co-star and her family” she will make herself miserable, as she’d go to jail and later take her life. She also alleged Akhtar attacked her moral character via certain statements.

Kangana’s lawyer Rizwan Siddiquee also revealed that Kangana moved a transfer plea before the chief metropolitan magistrate. She desires to transfer the defamation case from the in-charge court as she has “lost faith” in it because she feels the court is “biased against her.”

However, Javed Akhtar’s lawyer maintained that a transfer petition was already disposed of and suggested that Kangana was trying to evade legal proceedings.
