Police in Sharjeel's hometown Hyderabad visited his residence and spoke to his father to inquire about the matter but a senior official said the family had not filed any official complaint as yet with them.
"No official complaint has been made by them as yet with us so we can't move forward. But we are confident that if they make a complaint we can get to the bottom of the matter in a few hours," the official said.
"I just wanted to let you know some people have called me and threatened me they would release some videos of me if I don't pay them 200,000 rupees. I just want to tell my fans these videos are tampered and I am in no way involved in anything," Sharjeel said.
He said the unidentified persons had said they would increase the money by one lakh rupees a day until he didn't pay them.
