In a recent LIVE session, Splitsvilla 16’s Soudharya Shetty accused Akanksha Choudhary of negative PR. She further asked Akanksha, saying, "How are you enjoying when somebody is getting r**e threats (sic)." Responding to the allegations, Akanksha took to her Instagram story, stating, "Brother no one is responsible for the hate you are getting other than yourself." She added, however, that she does not support hatred toward anyone.
Akanksha also addressed Soudharya’s claims about her making comments regarding parents and other sensitive topics. She called out Soudharya for lying, saying, "Regarding the rod and the parents thing- I have never said this. We have never had this conversation." She further claimed that Soudharya brought up these statements off-camera because they never happened and he has no proof.

Akanksha Warns Soudharya of Legal Action
Firmly denying all accusations made against her by Soudharya, Akanksha warned that she would take legal action. In her statement, she wrote, "I will take action legally, factually and formally." She also urged her co-contestant to treat the show as a game, while calling her out with, "Truth vs lies. Receipts vs stories. Facts vs fiction."
Soudharya faced heavy trolling online after her clash with Suzzane, alongside Sadhaaf Shankar, in the recent episode of Splitsvilla 16. Responding to the backlash in a recent LIVE session, Soudharya claimed that Akanksha could have asked her fan base not to spread hatred and threats.
