Swastika Mukherjee, who was recently seen in the Netflix film Qala, has alleged that she received threatening emails from the co-producer Sandeep Sarkar of the upcoming Bengali film Shibpur and his associates.

She was allegedly informed that her pictures had been morphed and these images will be shared on pornography websites. Shocked at such a turn of events, the actor has filed a complaint with regard to sexual harassment at Golf Green Police Station in Kolkata.

Swastika has also reportedly reached out to the Eastern India Motion Pictures Association, along with the scanned copies of these threat mails. While clarifying the nature of her association with the producer, the actor mentioned that she had never met the producer while shooting for Shibpur.

As per media reports, while the co-producer's legal representative has denied his involvement in any such act, they have also said that the actor took the step after she was instigated by the director of the film, Arindam Bhattacharya.

Co-starring Parambrata Chatterjee, Shibpur is slated to release in cinemas on May 5.
