She added, "We also discussed the scripts. Then we thought about casting Shamita Shetty for one script, Sai Tamhankar and two other artists for another. I was supposed to direct these films."
However, she said that she has never met Shamita Shetty in person as her job was only to direct the film.
Earlier, Gehana had also hit out at actress Poonam Pandey and said she should not take the advantage of the situation when Raj is stuck.
"In 2011, Poonam said that she will go nude in the field if India wins. And, she is making nude videos for so many years. How can these people say that Raj has put them in the adult industry? They used to make such videos even before Raj launched his company," said Gehana to a leading daily.
For the unversed, Shilpa Shetty's husband and businessman Raj Kundra, was arrested by Mumbai Police on July 19 for allegedly being a "key conspirator" in a case related to the production and publishing of pornographic films on OTT apps. The police said it had sufficient evidence against Raj Kundra.
