Sonakshi claimed that there has been no warrant against her and that her reputation is being tampered with by a “rogue individual”. She also requested the media to not carry the “fake news” and said that the individual is seeking publicity and wants to extort money using her name.

Minutes after the statement, Sonakshi shared a picture of herself posing with her cup of coffee and wrote, "#HouseArrest" with multiple laugh emojis.

Meanwhile, her statement read, "There have been rumours of a nonbailable warrant issued against me floating in the media, without any verification from any authorities since a few days now. This is pure fiction and the work of a rogue individual trying to harass me. I request all media houses, journalists, and news reporters not to carry this fake news as it is playing into this individual’s agenda to gain publicity. This man is purely trying to gain some publicity and extort money from me by attacking my reputation which I have very proudly built over the years, by planting these malicious articles in the media. Kindly do not participate in this harassment charade. This matter is subjudice before the Muradabad court and has been stayed by the Allahabad High Court. My legal team will be taking all the necessary action against him for contempt of court."

"This will be my only comment on this matter until the Muradabad Court has passed its verdict, so please do not approach me for the same. I am home and I can assure you there are no warrants issued against me," she concluded her statement.
