On Monday, actor Nana Patekar exclaimed that the truth he spoke 10 years ago regarding Tanushree Dutta's accusation of sexual harassment on the sets of a 2008 film is still the same, and will continue to be.

In a short briefing to media Nana Patekar affirmed, "My lawyer and his team have advised me not to talk to any channel. I have always met and spoken to the media. I have no problems, but when my lawyer has said so, I will have to follow that. So, will you please pardon me for that ? Thank you very much'."

Patekar has already sent a legal notice to Dutta for allegedly making false accusations. Patekar described Tanushree's claims as a lie and he has also demanded an apology from the actress.
