One user wrote, “We are grateful to each one of you for your prayers love support n help towards Chrisann's release for justice.” Another comment read, “We are so so happy for you and your family! Cannot imagine what you were all going through. The grace and perseverance your family displayed is admirable. Wishing you all peaceful family time together.”
“Dear dear dear Chrisann, try and put everything everything behind you, what a wonderful happy happy happy ending. That’s what we all need in life. Through your tragic experience all of us have been reminded and have learnt how wicked some people can be. But your inner world is so full of love, your amazing family, your friends, your Bandra, your Bombay and that’s what you are coming back to. All our love,” read another comment on the video.
For the unversed, Chrisann Pereira, who has been a part of several Bollywood films including Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapoor’s Sadak 2, was arrested earlier this month in Sharjah by authorities. The actor was jailed after she was found carrying drugs in a trophy. The Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested two people on charges of framing the Bollywood actor in connection with the drug-smuggling case. The duo reportedly planted the drugs on the actor in order to get revenge.
