Bollywood actor Inder Kumar, who started his career with Masoom opposite Ayesha Jhulka and found fame as Salman Khan’s on-screen brother in Wanted, passed away at 44 last month following a cardiac arrest. It’s been a month and a lot has been spoken about the actor’s life, career, among others. Inder’s long time beau Isha Kopikar told a section of the media that Inder was a talented actor but he threw all that away as he was addicted to drugs and alcohol. But his second wife (after Sonal Karia), Pallavi Kumar came in support of her husband and slammed those who spoke ill about Inder after his death.
Reportedly, depression was the reason behind the actor’s death. While many wondered if inviability of work led to depression, now, Pallavi revealed that Inder was accused of rape in 2014. A 25-year old accused Inder of raping and brutally assaulting her for three days, in the pretence of giving her a break in Bollywood, claiming that the actor “used” her.
In a statement to Spotboye, Pallavi said, “Whatever suffering Inder was going through and the only reason for him being disturbed was this case. Obviously, if someone will accuse you of such a horrible crime and you are sent behind bars because of it, anyone will get disturbed and stressed, especially when you are a celebrity, the whole world comes to know about it. So, everytime he went for a hearing, he felt extremely humiliated.” The case got nullified due to actor’s death, his wife submitted a plea to the court, asking for to reopen the case. She further told the online portal, “I know Inder was innocent and we will win the case. This is a false allegation put on him to extort money and get fame by maligning Inder’s name. That’s why I submitted an application yesterday in the court to keep the case open.”
Lawyer, Ashok Sarogi, who loved Inder as his son, will fight for Inder’s case. Pallavi told the portal, “When I asked Mr. Ashok, Sir, will this case also shut after Inder’s death, he replied, ‘No! Who said that it will get shut? I will make sure that the girl gets punished for what she has done.”
Pallavi claimed that she has proof against the model which will definitely bring Inder to justice. She further added, “I wanted the reality to come out. He was a part of it because he was involved but I was the one who was fighting for it. I have provided all proofs in his defence in the court.”
