Checking if you are carrying any narcotics in your back side, they will strip you down in front of everyone so you feel like you have lost all your dignity when that happens. You feel like you have gone through so much already ab yahan pe bhi nanga kar rahe hain. Media to nanga kar hi rahi thi mujhe upar se ye bhi ho gaya so I felt very disheartened and hurt. (You feel like you have gone through so much already and now here also they are stripping you. Media was already stripping me and now this happened so I felt very disheartened and hurt)." 

He also delved on his days in jail and revealed how he was put in a common barrack. He said that each day brought up an adventure and the 2-hour UT 69 film is boxed with all his experiences. 

Raj Kundra also recalled how his wife, Shilpa Shetty and kids were attacked when got arrested and said, "I said you have a problem with me, you speak to me, talk about me. You don’t have to bring my wife into it, my kids into it, my family into it."
