Model Pooja Mishra says engaged couple has harassed her since she refused Timmy Narang's advances in 2006
It's a story that sounds right out of a movie. "Only it's my life," says model and VJ Pooja Mishra, who claims to have reached breaking point with her alleged tormentors restaurateur Timmy Narang and actress Eesha Koppikar.
Accusing the couple of mentally torture, espionage and of jeopardising her career, Mishra will file a complaint with the Andheri Metropolitan court today.

Last week she had also lodged a complaint with the Maharashtra State Commission for Women who have in turn directed the Amboli police station to look into her complaint against the couple.

"It's been going on since 2006 and out of grace, I kept silent. I can't anymore," said Mishra.

Incidentally, Narang and Koppikar are set to tie the knot next Sunday though Mishra denies that the upcoming wedding had anything to do with her allegations.

"I've been crying hoarse to anyone I could, but who's listened? I filed a non-cognisable offence complaint against Eesha for stalking me in April, I wrote to the Home Department in October, and the Crime Branch before that.

I couldn't find a lawyer to defend me. Nobody wanted to touch this case. I've been having breakdowns and it's affecting my career. I've to run out to PCOs to make calls. I can't use my phone anymore."

Mishra claims that the rift started when she had slighted Narang's advances in 2006, following which the harassment began.

"He was helped by Shatrughan Sinha's wife Poonam. They have installed spyware on my phone and in my complaint to the home department, I have also detailed about how they sent goons to smash my car.

My parents don't believe me anymore and I'm alone in this city.
I have no faith in the cops anymore," said Mishra, adding that several plum projects had fallen out of her lap because of what she terms as Koppikar's "insecurity".
Senior P I K Ghamande of the Amboli police station was busy and unavailable for comment.
Who's Timmy?
Timmy is the brother of socialite Ramona Narang and used to own Lush and Ra lounges at Phoenix Mills.
The other side
Poonam Sinha's agent said she was out of town and could not be reached. Koppikar and Narang declined to comment.
