Several actors from Bollywood lauded Dutta for talking about this incident but there were some celebrities who questioned her for not taking a legal route.

Patekar, who was shooting for "Housefull 4" in Jodhpur, landed here Saturday.

"I said this 10 years ago. A lie is a lie (Dus saal pehle bol chuka hoon, ab jo jhoot hai woh jhoot hai)," Patekar told reporters here at the airport Saturday.

The actor will hold a press conference on October 8 at his residence in suburban Andheri.

Patekar's lawyer has sent a legal notice to Dutta demanding her apology.
