Richa Chadha Waives Off Monetary Compensation in Suit Against Payal Ghosh: ‘This was About My Respect’

Richa Chadha had filed a defamation suit against Payal Ghosh for making a “false, baseless, indecent and derogatory statement” against her. On Wednesday, Ghosh told the Bombay High Court that they have amicably settled their dispute and filed consent terms in which she withdrew the statement made against Chadha and tendered an unconditional apology.

Chadha had also sought monetary compensation as damages, which she waived off when the case was settled. Out of respect for the court and the proceedings on October 7, I decided not to press for monetary compensation. It was not about money anyway. You can’t put a price on my reputation,” Chadha told Mumbai Mirror.
