Rupali Ganguly has recently hired Sana Raees Khan as her lawyer and issued a defamation notice to her step daughter Esha Verma. She has demanded a compensation of Rs. 50 crore. Ganguly claims that Esha’s accusations have damaged her reputation, as Esha previously alleged that Rupali was involved with her father, Ashwin Verma, while he was still married to Esha’s mother, Sapna Verma. Additionally, Esha accused Rupali of physically assaulting Sapna in Mumbai. Following the defamation suit, Esha addressed her followers on Instagram, sharing that she is moving forward with her life and feels more secure being in the United States.
