Shankar refused to comment, stating that the matter is pending before the court. "We have filed a defamation case against the company. I am seeking a compensation, and I do not want to comment on it at this point," he said.
Khemkar said that the company had filed a cheating complaint against Shankar, with the Bangalore Crime Banch. "We filed the complaint five months ago, and I don't think there is any progress in the case."
