Payal, however took a dig at Richa Chadha for asking her to write uncondition apology. She wrote, “We are ready with all your conditions but only you have to write it’s unconditional apology, kids or what.. just to satisfy ego .. Lol..!!” Earlier, Payal had taken to her Twitter handle and stated that she will not apologise to Richa Chadha. She had tweeted, "I am not apologizing to anyone. I have not wronged nor have I given a wrong statement about anyone. I just said what @anuragkashyap72 told me. #SorryNotSorry."
