Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 3 : Actor Rahul Roy has issued a strongly worded clarification on social media, addressing the recent online trolling and speculation about his financial condition, reportedly linked to ongoing legal matters.

The actor, best known for his role in 'Aashiqui', took to his Instagram handle and dismissed claims that he is financially struggling or "abandoned."

"I'm safe and I'm well taken care by my sister @harimaapriyanka and brother-in-law @romeersen, I live at my sister's place. We have a lovely house in Madh, And i'm deeply loved by her which makes me the luckiest brother in the world," the actor wrote.

Addressing his critics, Roy emphasised that he has access to all necessities, including food, clothing, and transportation.

"I have clothes, I have shoes, I have food, I have car, I'm not a abandoned person on road, the way fake videos are coming out is not true, my sister Hari maa and my brother in law Romeer sen have provided me with everything please do not disturb their sanity, they are the only thing that is left to me, my problem is I like to stay, wear simple and easy things which is my personal choice, i don't take bodyguard that's my personal choice, if I sometimes travel by auto it's easy and quick it's my personal choice," he continued.

The actor clarified further, "I did those reels with simplicity not with clever thoughts, it was work and not any financial help to me. I always think work is work that's my personal choice my decisions are my choice and I waited for good work enough for long but it doesn't come, I cannot sit and waste myself."

Rahul Roy urged his fans not to believe claims circulating on the internet, further asking them to always check on reliable sources.
