Actor Tanushree Dutta Saturday said she has not received any legal notice from Nana Patekar's lawyer.
Dutta, who recently kicked up a storm after she alleged that Patekar harassed her on the sets of film "Horn Ok Pleassss" in 2008, said he is trying to intimidate her giving "empty threats".
"Given the recent developments, I am putting together a team of lawyers and advocates to defend my interests. Also contrary to the claims made by Nana's lawyer I have not received any legal notice.
"...Instead of making empty threats to intimidate me into silence, send me a legal notice and then you will see what I will do with it," Dutta said in a statement.
The actor said despite of so many eye witness accounts she is being subjected to "criminal intimidation and harassment".
"This is the story of countless millions in our country who are still waiting justice because they got dragged into a web of legal mumbo-jumbo and were silenced into submission.They make a mockery of not only our judiciary but also our esteemed constitution by trying to disrupt a persons freedom of speech by such threats."
