Three days after Bombay HC denies blanket gag...

Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra has finally appealed to her fans and media after the Bombay High Court on last Friday denied passing a blanket gag order on the media against reporting anything against herself and her businessman husband Raj Kundra.

Justice Gautam Patel had said that doing so shall have a “chilling effect on the freedom of press.” “You chose a life in the public eye then all this will come as part of the territory. Your life is under a microscope,” he added.

Shilpa Shetty on Raj Kundra pornography case: Please respect our privacy, we don't deserve media trial

Actor Shilpa Shetty on Monday issued a statement in the ongoing porn films case involving husband Raj Kundra's arrest and requested people to respect their privacy, especially that of her children. Kundra, 45, was arrested by the crime branch on July 19, in a case, which it said related to alleged creation of pornographic films and publishing them through some apps.

In her public statement, the 46-year-old actress requested people to respect their privacy, especially that of her children, in the ongoing pornography case involving her husband's arrest.

"As a family, we are taking recourse to all our available legal remedies. But, till then I humbly request you - especially as a Mother - to respect our privacy for my children's sake and request you to refrain from commenting on half-baked information without verifying the veracity of the same," she wrote in a post.

Calling the past few days "challenging on every front", Shetty Kundra shared a note from her social media accounts that said the family has battled a "lot of rumours and accusations."

"A lot of unwarranted aspersions on me cast by the media and (not so) well-wishers as well. A lot of trolling/questions posed... not only to me but also to my family. My stand, I have not commented yet and will continue to refrain from doing so on this case as it is subjudice, so please stop attributing false quotes on my behalf," she wrote.

The 'Dhadkan' star further added that she has full faith in the Mumbai Police and the Indian judiciary. She said that she is a "proud law-abiding Indian citizen" and a hardworking professional for the last 29 years.

"People have put their faith in me and I've never let anyone down. So, most importantly, I request you to respect my family's and 'my right' to privacy in these times. We don't deserve a media trial. Please let the law take its course. Satyamev Jayate," she added.
