Prithvi Shaw Counters Allegations: Claims Publicity Stunt by Social Media Influencer

Cricketer Prithvi Shaw refutes social media influencer Sapna Gill's molestation allegations, labeling them a publicity ploy. Gill's previous legal action against Shaw involved charges stemming from a selfie-related brawl. Shaw asserts Gill aims to exploit his celebrity status for personal vendetta, while legal proceedings continue in court.

Indian cricketer Prithvi Shaw rebutted allegations made by Sapna Gill, a social media influencer, suggesting her legal claims were an attempt to malign his reputation for publicity.

The controversy arises from a 2023 incident where Gill was arrested following a dispute over selfies. Subsequent legal maneuvers by Gill claimed molestation, but police reports found no offense by Shaw.

The ongoing legal battle sees Gill pressing a revision petition while Shaw accuses Gill of exploiting his celebrity status for personal vendetta. The judiciary will convene next on March 31 to deliberate further on the case.
