Our lawyers have responded and on 10th February 2025 we will give a statement that clarifies our non involvement in the matter,” the tweet read.
Sood went on to mention how celebs are often easily targeted in such situations and added, “We are neither brand ambassadors nor are we associated in any way. This is just for unnecessary media attention to grab eyeballs. It is sad that celebs become soft targets. We will take strict action in this matter.”
