After Pearl's arrest came to light, many celebrities from the Television industry spoke in support of him and started trending the hashtag #IStandWithPearl. Producer Ekta Kapoor, on Saturday, took to her Instagram handle and shared a long note where she claimed to have spoken to the victim’s mother who confirmed the innocence of Pearl. She said that the entire story was made up by her husband. “After various calls with the child‘s/girl’s mother, who openly said that Pearl was not involved and it’s her husband trying to create stories to keep her child and prove that a working mother on a set cannot take care of her kid. If this is true then it is wrong on so many levels,” she wrote in the post.
