However, things took a turn when she landed in controversy over a shocking statement she made in an interview.

These animals are protected under the Indian Wildlife Protection Act, and hunting or consuming them is a punishable offense. As soon as this interview came to light, the Forest Department launched an investigation.
NGO Files Complaint Against Actress
A complaint was filed by an NGO, citing her statements as proof of illegal activity. The organization informed authorities that Chaaya herself had admitted to eating meat from protected species, which is strictly banned by Indian law.
This confession could now lead to serious legal action, as it clearly violates environmental and wildlife protection regulations.
Viral Video Triggers Public Outrage
The clip from her interview went viral on social media, drawing widespread criticism. Many fans and the public expressed disappointment and anger over her comments.
As the controversy grew, the Forest Department formed a special investigation team to look into the matter thoroughly.
Forest Department Steps In
The special team has been tasked with interrogating Chaaya Kadam and finding out how she obtained the meat of wild animals. Officials have confirmed that if anyone is found guilty—whether it’s the actress or those illegally selling wild meat—they will face strict action under wildlife laws.
This controversy has put a shadow over Chaaya Kadam’s otherwise respected career. Fans and the film industry are now waiting to see how the investigation unfolds.
