Former dacoit queen Seema Parihar today lambasted dreaded dacoit of the chambal ravines Nirbhay Gujjar for threatening to kill her and Krishna Mishra, the maker of a film on her life called Wounded.

"Nirbhay Gujjar is a weak man...By issuing such threats, he has shown his true colours. He does not deserve to be called 'dasyu samrat' (dacoit chieftain)," Parihar said at a hospital in Bhadoi where she is recuperating from a stomach operation.

Nirbhay was once married to Seema Parihar but she had later separated from him for another dacoit Lalaram. Nirbhay has alleged that on the behest of Seema, director Mishra has shown him in a bad light in the film, provoking him to issue the threat.

Parihar, who still has eight cases lodged against her and is out on bail, is playing herself in the film.
