Filmmaker Hansal Mehta is in support of Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty, whose husband Raj Kundra is arrested in a pornography-related case. The actress also filed a defamation suit against several media organisations for defamatory reports against her.

Hansal Mehta, the Scam 1992 director asked everyone to give Shilpa some privacy and pointed out how public figures are declared guilty even before justice is meted out. 

He tweeted, “If you cannot stand up for her at least leave Shilpa Shetty alone and let the law decide? Allow her some dignity and privacy. It is unfortunate that people in public life ultimately are left to fend for themselves and are proclaimed guilty even before justice is meted out." 

“In good times everybody parties together. In bad times there is deafening silence. There is isolation. No matter what the ultimate truth the damage is already done," he added.
