I am not running a prostitution racket: Deepti Naval

Veteran actors Deepti Naval and Farooq Shaikh, who had formed a very successful romantic team in the eighties with classics like 'Saath Saath', 'Katha' and 'Chashme Buddoor' among others, were harassed and hounded out of Deepti's apartment by members of her housing society.

Last Friday, Deepti and Farooq were speaking to a prominent TV journalists about the remake of Chashme Buddoor at the actress's spacious terrace apartment where she has been living since the last 30 years. This is also where she has hosted high-profile parties and conducted many press meets and does all her writing and painting.

The two actors were in the midst of the interview when office bearers of the society in the building 'Oceanic 1' at Seven Bungalows, barged into her apartment and took strong objections to her conducting work in her residential space. They asked her and Farooq to stop "all this naatak" and they threatened to call in the police. They argued: conducting interviews in one's home was against the rules of the society. The two actors who had never faced such an embarrassing situation did not want to create a scene or get into any argument with those who were determined to stop them from completing the interview. A pained Deepti profusely apologised to Farooque and the TV crew, and was so humiliated that she immediately left for her apartment in Harmony in Madh Island from where she has yet to return.

Speaking to TOI she could not hide her despair, "I was the first occupant of the building when no one dared to buy an apartment here. I have had many parties and the press has always found it very pleasant to meet me in my house. This is the first time that I was made to feel as if I was running a prostitution den. I have never felt so humiliated in my entire life. My only crime is that I don't mix around with the people in the building because I have nothing in common with them. I don't know what rules they are talking about when most of my friends have their meetings with the media in their own homes. I feel so terrible that I don't feel like going back to my own house."

Farooq felt bad for his colleague and said that he was unaware of any such law that prevented artistes from giving interviews at home.
