Mumbai, Aug 7 (TIWN) Actress Urvashi Rautela has reacted to the National Commission for Women (NCW) in the IMG Venture case, and said that her official association with the firm was purely centred on rendering services at an event that happened in November, in the capacity of a celebrity jury.

People Against Rape in India (PARI) founder Yogita Bhayana filed a complaint against Sunny Verma, promoter of IMG Venture, alleging that Verma has been blackmailing and sexually assaulting a number of women on the pretext of giving them modelling opportunities through the company. Urvashi is among several Bollywood celebrities whose names have been linked with IMG Ventures.

Urvashi said: "In light of the shocking development and unfolding of scandalizing allegations pressed on IMG Venture (our then client), I have been attracting a great deal of hatred and animosity from all quarters and have found myself to be at the receiving end of this disgraceful revelation."

"My official association with the client was purely centered on rendering my services towards the on-ground finale event happening in November as the scope of a celebrity jury. I was in no capacity involved with the selection process, operations of the event, and neither is the knowledge of the same," she added.
