Varsha alleged in her FIR that attempts are being made by Anubhav to tarnish her image by making a video viral on social media.
Notably, rounds of mediation between Anubhav and Varsha have been conducted by the top court mediation centre through videoconference to settle their marital discord.
Varsha lodged the FIR after a video showing the celebrity couple indulged in severe altercation went viral two days ago.
Earlier in the day, Anubhav appeared before the SDJM court here in connection with the case previously filed by Varsha.
Anubhav submitted his reply on the case in an affidavit. The court had earlier served a notice on him in connection with a domestic violence case filed by Varsha.
“I appeared before the court and submitted my response. I am praying to God and you also pray that the wrongdoer may get punishment. I have full faith in the law and I am sure justice will prevail,” Anubhav said.
