Director and producer of the superhit show Anupamaa, Rajan Shahi has openly extended his support for Rupali Ganguly amidst her ongoing family feud and legal dispute going on with her step-daughter Esha Verma. Rajan shared a picture with the actress, accompanied by a long, heartfelt caption where he showered praises on the actress for her humility and dedication to her craft. This comes after the actress filed a defamation case of Rs 50 crore against her step-daughter Esha.
The caption read, “Rupali, you inspire all of us each day, every moment at DKP/Shahi Productions for your hard work, dedication, talent, honesty, integrity, and humility. Anupamaa, you have created “history,” a benchmark and landmark very few can reach or create. Thoo thoo thoo! We have seen behind the scenes all the hard work, challenges, and sacrifices you face with a smile. Your humility as an actress is inspirational to all of us at the Anupamaa team.”
After applauding Rupali for creating history, Rajan further added, “Walk forward always, as usual, with a smile and confidence, as your daily hard work is your answer to all. The loyalty and dedication to your craft and Anupamaa is exemplary. Proud of you and always with you. Thoo thoo thoo. Best wishes and regards, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai / Anupamaa / AK3 team and unit. Entire unit of DKP/Shahi Productions / I Shahi. From Deepa Shahi Rajan and Ishika Shahi, And the entire “Team” Anupamaa. Thoo thoo thoo.”
For the unversed, Rupali’s legal notice to Esha was sent by her lawyer Sana Raes Khan. The notice, an answer to the several claims made by her, mentioned that the actress suffered from mental trauma, leading her to seek medical assistance after she defamed the actress on public platforms. It also mentions that Rupali had to face humiliation on set and lost out on professional opportunities because of the ongoing dispute.
Apart from claiming Rs 50 crore compensation, the actress has also demanded a public apology immediately.
