Pearl V Puri who was being accused of sexually molesting a 5 year old child and was arrested for the same is receiving a huge support from the entertainment industry. Along with Ekta Kapoor, Anita Hassanandani, Krystle D’Souza and Aamir Ali, Divya Khosla Kumar has also shared an Instagram post explaining the entire incident. She posted a picture of the child with both her parents, Anil Donde and Ekta Sharma with caption, “Shocking & Shameful”.
She wrote in the post, “Let me introduce them to you … this man is Anil Donde & this woman is an actress, Ekta Sharma. Anil Donde is the man who has put the charge on Pearl V Puri that he molested his 5-year-old daughter on the sets of the serial, Bepanah Pyaar produced by Balaji Telefilms 2 years ago. Anil & Ekta have been undergoing a custody battle for their daughter … & since the last 2 years the daughter has been with Anil coz he has put a charge on Ekta claiming that since she is an actress & she took the daughter on her sets where the lead actor molested her, the daughter is unsafe with her own mother… I feel Anil Donde should be given the Filmfare best screenplay award for this plot. Now the police have arrested Pearl … I want to know why the police did not arrest him in 2019 when this case was filed … the reason is that In the FIR filed it was mentioned that the child was molested when she was with the mother. Pearl’s name was nowhere in the FIR. (I’ve read the FIR myself when Pearl’s mother forwarded it to me yesterday when she called me for help) Ekta Sharma in her calls with Ekta Kapoor clearly says that her husband is a psychotic person, who has mentally & physically abused her, she’s got several proofs for the same, she clears the case by saying that Pearl is innocent & nothing like this happened on the sets.”
Further she wrote, ” Please note The child is 5 Yrs old … 10days later the father abducted the child after school & filed a case of physical abuse. Still, neither the child nor the father mentioned Pearl’s name … fast forward to 2yrs later today in 2021 when the child is now 7yrs old – She recognises the accused. For a second if we assume that such a thing happened with the poor baby … I want to know at such a tender age will the baby remember the person’s name & recognise him.” She also expressed her concern Puri’s career after this huge defamation. She also requested everyone to come forward and support Pearl with a hashtag, #istandwithpearl.
