Rakhi Sawant
Actress Rakhi Sawant was summoned by the police in reaction to her appearance on one of the episodes of Samay Raina's controversial show India's Got Latent. Sawant related to the summons in a video she posted on her social media handle. In the candid video, Sawant questioned the need for her summons and requested the authorities to prioritise rape cases in the country.
In the clip, Rakhi Sawant wondered about the reason for her summons saying that she did not abuse anyone on the show. "Mujhe summon bhejne ka matlab nahi hai doston. Aap mereko video call kariye, main aapke sare sawalon ka jawab dene ke liye tayaar hoon. Main ek artist hoon, mujhe paise deke interview ke liye bulaya gaya tha. Maine interview diya, kisiko galiyan nahi di. Toh mereko summon bhejne ka matlab kya hai?" (What’s the point of sending me summons? Just video call me, and I’ll answer your questions. I was paid to attend an interview and didn’t abuse anyone.)
