Bollywood actress Soha Ali Khan had chosen to stay away from the Olympic torch relay which is to be held in New Delhi.
"I fully support the Olympic relay and am saddened at the disruptions in its path in various parts of the world as well as the violence in Tibet. But I can't run due to very strong personal reasons," said Soha.
Earlier Soha was one of the proposed torch bearer along with brother Saif Ali Khan and actor Aamir Khan was said to take part in the event.
The announcment from the actress has come out as another setback for the Olympic Association with many prominent personalitites including Rahul Gandhi, IPs officer Kiran Bedi etc puling out of the event.
