Sooraj Pancholi Denies Connection to Disha Salian Case Amid CBI Investigation
Actor Sooraj Pancholi has publicly denied any connection to the death of Disha Salian following the CBI's registration of an FIR naming him among others for investigation. Pancholi stated he has never met Salian or Shiv Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray and described the repeated association of his name with the case as unfair and upsetting. He confirmed having been questioned by authorities years ago and expressed willingness to cooperate further, emphasizing he has nothing to hide and supports a thorough investigation.
