A Mid-Day report had quoted the dancer saying, "It happened to me three decades ago. I have been married and have had kids, but he hasn’t changed one bit. When I read about the FIR, I knew I had to speak up too. In 1990, I used to go to Sahiba hall in Andheri West where several masters take dance classes. Acharya used to assist Kamal masterji. I was 18 then and working as a non-member dancer.”

The complainant also accused the choreographer and the two women of assaulting her during a function of the  Indian Film and Television Choreographers Association in Andheri.
