Rupali Ganguly Stepdaughter deletes the post after defamation
Just a day after Rupali Ganguly filed a Rs 50 crore defamation suit against Esha, the latter removed posts related to her father, Ashwin Verma, and his wife, Rupali
In an unexpected turn, Esha Verma, who accused Rupali Ganguly of threatening her and her mother, has deleted the related posts and her picture with the Anupamaa star.
Just a day after Rupali Ganguly filed a Rs 50 crore defamation suit against Esha, the latter removed posts related to her father, Ashwin Verma, and his wife, Rupali. The 26-year-old also switched her account from public to private. While Esha hasn’t publicly responded to Rupali’s legal action, her post deletions have caught netizens’ attention.
In her latest post, Esha shared a video expressing her fear around Rupali Ganguly. In the 13-minute video, she introduced herself and thanked those supporting her. Esha insisted her goal is not revenge but rather to tell the truth.
What led to the defamation case by Rupali Ganguly?
In the video, Esha voiced her disappointment with her father, Ashwin Verma, Rupali’s husband, for disregarding her mental health struggles and not offering support. She added, “I realized that I have stood up against my bullies, my true bullies in life. They hurt not only me but my mother, whom I love deeply.”
Esha, Ashwin’s daughter from his previous marriage, also apologized to her half brother Rudransh (Rupali and Ashwin’s son), acknowledging the hurt her earlier remarks may have caused him. She then posted on Instagram, saying, “Closing this chapter.”
For context, Esha alleged that Rupali began a relationship with Ashwin while he was still married to her mother, Sapna. She also accused Rupali of stealing her mother’s jewelry and called her half-brother “illegitimate.”
This controversy reignited when Esha’s old post from 2020 resurfaced online. Ashwin Verma, however, posted a note on X (formerly Twitter) in support of Rupali, while Rupali herself remained silent on the matter.
On November 11, Rupali, known for her role in *Sarabhai vs. Sarabhai*, sent Esha a Rs 50 crore defamation notice. Celebrity lawyer and *Bigg Boss 17* contestant Sana Raees Khan, representing Rupali, issued a statement calling Esha’s allegations “baseless.”
