New Delhi : Actor turned Politician Payal Ghosh was attacked by a few masked men when she was returning her home from a nearby medical store, in Mumbai. The actor revealed that she was attacked by some unknown persons with an iron rod when she was getting into her car.

In the Instagram video, Payal can be heard saying, “Hi, I am Payal Ghosh and yesterday I went out to buy some medicine. As I was trying to sit in my driver’s seat, some people came and tried to attack me. There was a bottle in their hand. I don’t know what it was. I suspect maybe acid or something. They also tried to hit me with a rod. I tried to escape and shouted, so the rod fell on my left hand and I got injured. Probably today I will go to the police station to do the FIR.”
“I don’t know this kind of thing never happened to me in my life ever. This was the first time in Mumbai that I had to face this. I really don’t know what it was” she further added.
In her recent Instagram story, Payal shared a picture of herself showing her injured hand with caption, “I couldn’t sleep the whole night out of pain”.
