BOMBAY TIMES (March 18, 2016)
Over the last couple of days, a lot has been reported on the exchange of legal notices between Hrithik Roshan and Kangana Ranaut. It all started following reports of the actress' ouster from a film and when she was asked about it, she had been quoted as saying, “Yes, many lame rumours are doing the rounds, even a dumb ass can tell where these rumours are coming from. I don't know why exes do silly things to get your attention. For me that chapter is over and I don't dig graves.“

Now, maintaining that all the information coming out has been one-sided and there have been too many speculations, Hrithik has decided to break his silence. In a statement issued to the media, he asserts, “Anything private that becomes public gives rise to speculation and unnecessary controversies simply because the general public is not privy to the whole truth. Out of respect for everyone involved, I followed the legal path to resolve the matter in question so as to keep it private. It was a breach of ethics to reveal the contents of a private legal notice. Dignified silence is dignified up to a point, but there comes a time when the silence needs to be broken to protect one's name, family and image.“
The superstar further adds, “The crux of the matter is that the email id hroshan@email.com does NOT belong to me. I had filed a complaint in this regard with Mumbai cyber crime cell on December 12, 2014 when I learnt of this impersonator communicating with the said person. I have absolutely NO CONNECTION with this ID. On March 5, we reactivated our complaint and the crime unit has made headway in tracking this person down. Once that is done, this matter can be laid to rest.“
He sums it up saying, “And finally, I believe that mental health is a grave and crucial issue which merits serious discussion. I would never address it flippantly nor use it as a personal attack. I was requested to keep silent and I did so for two years. This will be my final statement regarding this matter.“
The actor's words have given a different spin to the story. Perhaps there is more to the tale than what we've been reading so far.

MUMBAI MIRROR (March 18, 2016)
The current Hrithik Roshan-Kangana Ranaut legal battle has the media speculating wildly. However, till date all of the information has been one-sided. After maintaining a dignified silence for months, Hrithik has finally spoken directly about the matter from his side.
"Anything private that becomes public gives rise to speculation and unnecessary controversies simply because the general public are not privy to the whole truth.
Out of respect for everyone involved, I followed the legal path to resolve the matter in question so as to keep it private. It was a breach of ethics to reveal the contents of a private legal notice. Dignified silence is dignified up to a point, but there comes a time when the silence needs to be broken to protect one's name, family and image.
The crux of the matter is that the mail id hroshan@email.com does NOT belong to me. I had filed a complaint in this regard with Mumbai Cyber Crime cell on 12 December, 2014 when I learnt of this impersonator communicating with said person. I have absolutely NO CONNECTION with this ID. The entire issue stems from a case of identity theft which has carried over to me. My complaint was reactivated on March 5, 2016 and the crime unit has made headway in tracking this person down. Once that is done, the matter can be laid to rest.
And finally, I believe that mental health is a grave and crucial issue which merits serious discussion. I would never address it flippantly nor use it as a personal attack. Any allegation to the contrary is a misrepresentation of facts. I was requested to keep silent and I did so for 2 years."
The actor's words certainly put a different spin on the story. Perhaps there is much more to the tale than we have been hearing.
