This was bound to happen. Actress Esha Gupta who had recently vilified abused and heckled a businessman Rohit Vig for allegedly “raping” her with his eyes at a restaurant in Delhi, has slapped a defamation suit against the actress accusing her of maligning his name without discernible provocation.The defamation suit filed through lawyer Vikas Pahwa, declares, “The mental agony caused to the complainant is continuing every day since close friends and colleagues are contacting him and his family on a continuous basis and expressing displeasure over the content posted by the accused….many members of the public have been expressing doubts on the integrity and moral character of the complainant believing the false and defamatory statements to be true,” the plea read further.”While one completely condemns any sort of sexual misconduct and stands by any genuine victim of the same it was baffling to see an empowered celebrity ranting about being stared at by a man sitting in a restaurant sitting at a table next to hers.Esha accused the man of “raping me with his eyes” at a restaurant in Delhi. She recounted the “uncomfortable” incident on her social media accounts. The actress alleged that she was having dinner when the man arrived at the restaurant and took a table opposite her and made her uncomfortable with his long stare.She later identified the man as Rohit Vig. Describing the incident, in a series of tweets, Gupta wrote, “If a woman like me can feel violated and unsafe in the county, then IDK (I don’t know) what girls around feel. Even with two securities around I felt getting raped… #RohitVig you’re a swine.. he deserves to rot.”
