A
few
days
ago,
Bigg
Boss
14
contestant
and
producer
Vikas
Gupta
had
claimed
in
an
interview
that
he
had
briefly
dated
Pratyusha
Banerjee.
He
had
added
that
the
late
actress
only
came
to
know
about
his
bisexuality
only
after
they
had
broken
up.
However,
Gupta’s
statements
haven’t
gone
down
well
with
Pratyusha’s
boyfriend
Rahul
Raj
Singh.
Rahul
has
reacted
by
stating
that
Vikas’
claims
about
seeing
Pratyusha
are
false.
He
then
accused
the
TV
producer
of
using
her
name
to
be
in
limelight
whilst
also
revealing
that
they
weren’t
even
on
talking
terms
at
one
point
in
time.
Rahul
was
quoted
by
TOI
as
saying,
“Pratyusha
was
always
open
about
her
relationships.
She
never
hid
her
personal
life.
Vikas
Gupta
is
just
making
use
of
the
situation
because
the
person
isn’t
alive
to
respond
to
his
claims.
She
had
told
me
when
we
were
doing
the
show
Power
Couple
(2015)
that
Vikas
had
proposed
to
her
and
she
declined
it,
as
she
was
aware
of
his
sexuality.”
Rahul
also
mentioned
that
Pratyusha
had
told
him
that
the
producer
had
planned
a
project
with
her,
which
he
scrapped
later.
He
then
accused
Vikas
of
using
Banerjee’s
name
to
his
advantage
and
added,
“Pratyusha
never
dated
Vikas,
so
the
question
of
them
parting
ways
doesn’t
arise.
In
fact,
they
weren’t
even
on
talking
terms
after
a
point.
He
shouldn’t
cook
up
stories
for
publicity.
Pratyusha
would
have
slapped
him
had
she
been
alive.”
Rahul
further
said
that
he
will
file
a
defamatory
case
against
the
TV
producer
as
he
doesn’t
appreciate
him
bringing
up
his
name
in
interviews.
The
actor
said
that
will
have
to
take
the
legal
route
against
him
if
this
doesn’t
stop.
For
the
unversed,
Pratyusha
is
known
for
playing
the
role
of
Anandi
in
Balika
Vadhu.
She
had
reportedly
died
by
suicide
at
her
residence
in
Goregaon
on
April
1,
2016.
It
must
be
noted
that
Rahul
Raj
Singh
was
accused
of
Pratyusha’s
death
and
a
case
was
also
registered
against
him
at
the
time.
However,
he
was
later
granted
anticipatory
bail
by
the
Bombay
High
Court.
