However, the name of the insulter was not revealed. The actress named those who had made obscene comments under this post in her complaint. Subsequently, the police registered a case against 30 people and arrested a Kumbalam native.
In her post, she addressed Bobby Chemmanur, telling him to believe in the power of his money, and added that she believed in the power of the legal system in India.
Meanwhile, Bobby Chemmanur came forward with a response after actress Honey Rose’s complaint. He clarified that she had not said anything about the wrong intentions and that he was unaware of the circumstances that led her to file a complaint.
He said that he compared Honey Rose to Kunti Devi of Mahabharata months ago, during the mentioned inauguration event.
