Filmmaker Manish Gupta Denies Allegations of Stabbing Driver
In a shocking turn of events, filmmaker Manish Gupta has denied allegations of stabbing his driver with a kitchen knife, calling it a “100% false accusation”. The alleged incident occurred after an argument over not paying the driver’s salary, which has left the Bollywood industry in a state of shock.
According to reports, the driver had claimed that Gupta had stabbed him with a kitchen knife during a dispute over his salary. However, Gupta has vehemently denied the allegations, stating that the driver had made a false statement to the police to put his reputation at risk and extort more money from him.
In a statement, Gupta said, “The driver gave a false statement to the police to put my reputation at risk…so that I come under pressure and he can extort more money from me.” He also added that the driver had been working for him for over a year and had been paid regularly, with no issues or disputes until now.
The alleged stabbing incident reportedly occurred after Gupta refused to pay the driver his salary, leading to a heated argument. The driver had claimed that Gupta had attacked him with a kitchen knife, leaving him seriously injured. However, Gupta’s version of events contradicts this, stating that the driver had fabricated the entire incident to gain leverage and extort money from him.
Gupta’s denial of the allegations has raised questions about the authenticity of the driver’s claims. While the driver’s story may have seemed plausible at first, Gupta’s consistent denial and the lack of concrete evidence to support the allegations have led many to doubt the driver’s version of events.
The alleged incident has sent shockwaves through the Bollywood industry, with many of Gupta’s colleagues and friends coming out in support of him. Several industry insiders have expressed their surprise and disbelief at the allegations, with some even questioning the driver’s motives.
One industry insider, who wished to remain anonymous, said, “Manish is a respected filmmaker and a good human being. He would never do something like this. The driver’s story seems fabricated and I’m sure the truth will come out soon.”
The investigation into the alleged incident is ongoing, with police officials still gathering evidence and statements from witnesses. While Gupta’s denial of the allegations has raised questions about the driver’s claims, the truth behind the incident remains unclear.
In the meantime, Gupta’s reputation has taken a hit, with many fans and industry insiders expressing their support for him on social media. The filmmaker has also released a statement denying the allegations, which has been met with mixed reactions from fans and critics alike.
As the investigation continues, it remains to be seen what the truth behind the alleged incident is. One thing is certain, however – the Bollywood industry is abuzz with speculation and rumors, with many waiting with bated breath for the truth to come out.
