Bollywood actress Poonam Pandey reacted to the arrest of the business and gave a statement, "At this moment my heart goes out to Shilpa Shetty & her kids. I can't imagine what she must be going through. So, I refuse to use this opportunity to highlight my trauma. The only thing I'll add is that I have filed a police complaint in 2019 against Raj Kundra and subsequently registered a case at the honourable high court of Bombay against him for fraud & theft. This matter is sub judice. Hence I would prefer to limit my statements. Also, I have full faith in our police & the judicial process."
