Another FIR has been filed against the choreographer, following sexual harassment allegations levelled against him by a senior background dancer.
Media reports stated that in a letter to the National Commission of Women (NCW) on Tuesday, the complainant revealed that Ganesh Acharya had "coerced" her into having sex with him in 1990, but she managed to get away.
Speaking to Mid-Day, the complainant said that she felt the need to come forward with her story after she read about the first FIR filed against Acharya. The complainant also revealed that she knows of another person Acharya had tried something similar on.
