Shilpa Shetty Kundra has landed in a legal soup after the arrest of her husband Raj Kundra on July 19 in a pornography case. Shilpa has already been questioned twice by the Mumbai Police Crime Branch in connection with the case. Now, filmmaker Hansal Mehta spoke in defense of the actor on Twitter. On Friday, he took to Twitter asking everyone to leave her alone.
Shilpa and Raj Kundra have been mercilessly trolled online ever since the arrest. The Hungama 2 actor also filed a defamation suit at the Bombay High Court against media publications and social media platforms for publishing defamatory content against her.
In his tweet, Hansal wrote, "If you cannot stand up for her at least leave Shilpa Shetty alone and let the law decide? Allow her some dignity and privacy. It is unfortunate that people in public life ultimately are left to fend for themselves and are proclaimed guilty even before justice is meted out".

He further wrote, "This silence is a pattern. In good times everybody parties together. In bad times there is deafening silence. There is isolation. No matter what the ultimate truth the damage is already done."

"This vilification is a pattern. If the allegations are against a film person there is a rush to invade privacy, to pass sweeping judgment, to character-assassinate, to fill 'news' with trashy gossip all at the cost of individuals and their dignity. This is the cost of silence," he added.

Meanwhile, hearing Shilpa's defamation suit on Friday, the Bombay High Court directed a few media platforms to take down their contents. However, the court also added that this shall not be constructed as a gag on media.
