Producer Ekta Kapoor came under the scanner after a police complaint filed against her web series 'Triple X-2' for disrespecting the Indian Army. Ekta addressed this issue and spoke up about the rape and death threats she is receiving after FIR lodged.

In a chat with Shobha De, Ekta said that she is ready to apologize if the demand for it comes from ‘any bona fide army institution’ but won't bow down to cyberbullying. "As an individual and as an organization, we are deeply respectful towards the Indian Army. Their contribution to our well-being and security is immense. Yes, we shall readily tender an unconditional apology if such a demand comes from any bona fide army institution. But we won’t bow down to uncivilized cyberbullying and rape threats by random elements,” she said.



The rape and death threat came after Bigg Boss 13 contestant and Youtuber Hindustani Bhau aka Vikas Phatak filed a complaint against the producer. To which, Ekta Kapoor said, “This gentleman who thinks that he’s the ‘patriot of the year’ decided to come out there, abuse my mother and me. And now, he has openly put a rape threat on a social platform."

"This is now no longer about the army or sexual content because the idea of this is ‘rape a girl, rape her son, rape her 71-year-old mother’ for making sexual content. It means sex is bad but rape is okay.”

"It was ‘no big deal’ for her to issue an apology for the controversial scene, but now, I have decided to take the route of standing up to this cyberbullying”. She said, “If they can decide to take my nudes out, put out my nudes on the net, call me r****, then tomorrow, they can do this to any girl.” she added.

FYI, the scene which led to the controversy has been removed from the series which is streaming on ALT Balaji.
