Anushka said such reports take away from hard work she has put in for years and that she is very much capable of handling her own films.

"By making such bogus claims and validating this rubbish by your so-called 'source', not only are you disrespecting me and the hard work I have put in over the years to be where I am, but also, all the people who have worked on this film. Freedom of press comes with accountability & your fake sources are never accounted for.
