Actor Hrithik Roshan's legal team on Tuesday slammed the leak of his "intimate" photo with actress Kangana Ranaut, with whom he is locked in a bitter legal battle, saying it did not tell the full story.
"It's shocking that people can go to these lengths to establish a lie. They are lying and using dangerous ways to camouflage that lie. They are making efforts to blur the line between what is true and what is concocted. Please differentiate between bonafide evidence and a made up arguments.
"We will not abandon this struggle just because there is an attempt to muddle up things. We want to know what is their struggle about proving that they have had something to do with our client? What do they want to achieve through that?" said a lawyer for the actor.
According to the sources, the pictures are from a party in which Hrithik's ex-wife Suzanne and many other common friends were also present and all were hugging each other and taking jovial group pictures.
Issues between the two actors surfaced when Kangana hinted at Hrithik being her 'ex', saying in an interview that she fails to understand "why exes do silly things to get your attention".
