Actress Payal Ghosh, who has acted in few Tollywood and Kollywood movies had recently accused acclaimed filmmaker-actor Anurag Kashyap of sexually assaulting her before few years, and this has sent shock waves across the industry.

Anurag Kashyap who debuted in Tamil with Imaikkaa Nodigal has denied the allegations, calling them baseless, and many actresses including Taapsee Pannu who have worked with him have come in support of him.

Now, Anurag Kashyap's ex-wife Kalki Koechlin, who was seen in a cameo in Ajith's Nerkonda Paarvai has come in support of her ex-husband in the issue. Taking to Instagram, Kalki Koechlin posted a note that read "Dear Anurag, Don't let this social media circus get to you, you have fought for the freedom of women in your scripts, you've defended their integrity in your professional space as well as in your personal life. I have been witness to it, in the personal and professional space you have always seen me as your equal, you have stood up for my integrity even after our divorce, and you have supported me when i felt unsafe in a work environment even before we got together. This strange time where everyone gets to abuse one another and make false claims without any repercussions is a dangerous and repulsive one. It is destroying families, friends and countries. But there is a place of dignity that exists beyond this virtual blood bath, a place of paying attention to the needs of those around you, a place of being kind even when no one is looking, and I know you are very familiar with that place. hang on to that dignity, stay strong and keep doing the work you do. Love from an ex wife".
