Sehaj Arora and his wife, the proprietors of ‘Kulhad Pizza’ in Jalandhar, have come forward to assert that they are facing political pressure in an ongoing controversy surrounding a viral video. In a statement shared on Facebook and Instagram, Sehaj Arora appealed to the media and the public to refrain from making false statements without evidence, as they grapple with the aftermath of the video’s circulation.
In his message, Sehaj Arora stated, “We are being forced to settle this due to political pressure. Statements were made against us when we denied. I have all the evidence. We don’t have any political support. We need your support to stop these videos on the internet and get justice.” Arora emphasized that the allegations against them stem from political pressures, and they are in possession of evidence supporting their claims.
The controversy began earlier this month when a video allegedly depicting Sehaj Arora and his wife, the Kulhad couple in a compromising position went viral. Arora vehemently denied the video’s authenticity and filed a police complaint regarding the matter. He further claimed that the person attempting to blackmail them had been apprehended.
The couple, who recently became parents, has maintained that the incident is the result of an extortion attempt and that the viral video has been manipulated or “morphed.” They have also expressed concerns about the impact of the controversy on their family, particularly the mental health of Sehaj Arora’s wife, who is reportedly suffering from depression.
Sehaj Arora, known for serving pizza in earthen cups, asserted that they had refused to succumb to the extortion demands. In a video statement outside a police station, he disclosed that they had received the “fake” video on Instagram along with a demand for money. Refusing to meet the demand, they reported the extortion attempt to the police.
In a subsequent video released by Sehaj Arora, he provided insight into the emotional and mental toll the controversy had taken on him and his wife. The couple is seeking the support of their followers and the wider public to clear their names and put an end to the circulation of the viral video.
The situation highlights the challenges individuals and businesses face when confronted with potentially damaging content in the age of social media and the importance of addressing such issues through legal means.
