The actor also mentioned that Kangana's Lawyer Rizwan Siddiquee pressurized him to withdraw the defamation case. He said, “I recorded his conversation and submitted it to the court on April 10. The case was on and I told the honourable judge in my statement that this lawyer had threatened to file a rape case against me in January. 

"I got the pen drive (with the videos of his conversation) verified under the Indian Evidence Act. I have a certificate which proves that the videos are not doctored. I have submitted the evidence with the certificate at the Versova police station, and given an application to investigate the videos that I have submitted.”
