New Delhi | Jagran Entertainment Desk: Actor Payal Ghosh will file a police complaint against filmmaker Anurag Kashyap on Monday, said actor's lawyer Nitin Satpute, according to ANI.

"Payal Ghosh has decided to lodge an FIR against the accused. We will file a complaint at Oshiwara Police Station tomorrow. We are doing paperwork today. She has decided that she will lodge FIR against Anurag Kashyap," Satpute was quoted as saying by the news agency.

The model-turned-actor has accused Kashyap of sexual misconduct. "Anurag Kashyap has forced himself on me and extremely badly. PMO India, Narendra Modi, kindly take action and let the country see the demon behind this creative guy. I am aware that it can harm me and my security is at risk. Pls help." she wrote in her tweet urging the PMO to take action against the filmmaker.

In his response, Kashyap rubbished the allegations calling it an attempt to silence him. "Wow, it took you so long to make an attempt to silence me. Never mind... in a bid to silence me, you have dragged another woman in this, despite being a woman. Please stick to the limits, Madame. All I want to say is all allegations are baseless," he tweeted.

Payal made her Hindi film debut in 2017’s Patel Ki Punjabi Shaadi, a romantic comedy, also starring Rishi Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, Vir Das and Prem Chopra. She has also featured in south Indian movies like Prayanam, Varshadhaare and Mr Rascal, before her Bollywood debut.
