The incident comes just six weeks after Kim Kardashian was tied up, locked inside her bathroom and robbed at gunpoint inside her Hotel de Pourtales apartment on October 3. According to CNN, police declined to comment on whether the reality star’s attack is thought to be linked to Sherawat’s.
The Indian-born beauty is best known for her starring roles in films such as Welcome, Aap Kaa Surroor and Time Raiders. Sherawat (real name: Reema Lamba) has posted on social media since Friday, but has yet to directly acknowledge the terrifying incident.

I thank you all for all your love and I thank God every day.”
