Disha Salian's Father Sends Rs 500 Crore Defamation Notice to Aaditya Thackeray and Anil DeshmukhPreviousNext

Satish Salian, father of Disha Salian, has issued a Rs 500 crore defamation notice against Aaditya Thackeray and Anil Deshmukh. The notice alleges that their statements questioned his pursuit of justice in his daughter's death case by portraying it as politically motivated. Aaditya Thackeray has denied any involvement and called the allegations baseless. Disha Salian, who managed late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, died in Mumbai in June 2020, with her death linked to wider controversies surrounding Rajput's passing.
