Mumbai/IBNS: Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma has slammed sportswear brand Puma for using her images "without permission" in her Instagram post.

The brand has now responded and the reply has confused social media users.

Puma India took to their official Instagram handle and posted a picture of what appears to be a contract.

The image mentions "Puma x Anushka" and has a "confidential" stamp on it.

Along with the photo, the company wrote, "Hey @anushkasharma, we should've reached out sooner! Should we take things to the next level, then? "

She also shared some images of her sporting various Puma outfits under the tag paid partnership.

In an Instagram story posted yesterday, the actor reposted the picture shared by the brand to promote its sale event and wrote, "Hey, @PumaIndia? I'm sure you know that you have to take permission before you can use my imagery for publicity since I am not your ambassador.''
