As per a report in Chitra Jyothy, Jani Master said during the investigation, “The allegations made by the victim against me are baseless. She introduced herself to me through a show. She lied about being sexually assaulted as a minor. I recognized her talent and allowed her to be an assistant choreographer to me. The victim used to torture me mentally to marry her. Many times she threatened me.”
For the unversed, the female complainant filed a complaint accusing the Pushpa choreographer of sexually abusing her multiple times. The female choreographer, who had been working with Jani Master over the years, first faced the assault at a hotel in Mumbai.

Ayesha said, “She traps wealthy men in the name of love and tortures them. I request the chamber to investigate the issue and bring justice to me and my children.” Moreover, as per a report in M9 News, Jani Master’s wife has alleged that the victim had trapped and harassed Jani Master under the pretext of love.
Further, she said that the female colleague of Master did not allow her husband to come home but when Ayesha confronted her, she denied everything.
