Payal, who has recently accused Anurag Kashyap of raping her, had also named two women including Richa in that case. Richa had filed a defamation case on Payal for making false, baseless, indecent and derogatory statements and also demanded compensation.
However, the matter has been solved amicably according to Payal’s lawyer Nitin Satpute. He told Justice AK Menon that the two sides have settled the dispute by mutual consent and filed an application in this regard. Payal said in the promissory note that she is withdrawing the statement she gave against Richa and she has also apologised.
