NEW DELHI: Yuvraj Singh’s birthday celebrations on Tuesday night ended with a first information report being filed against the cricketer at a police station in Gurgaon.

The cricketer and his friends have been accused of manhandling and assaulting Yuvraj Mahajan, a guest who attended Singh’s party at his residence.

Mahajan and his mother Neelam registered an FIR, which was withdrawn after a compromise. Singh’s mother Shabnam told DNA, “We decided there was no point in taking this further and compromised on the matter.”

Singh had been celebrating his birthday with close friends, including Bollywood actress Kim Sharma and cricketer Ashish Nehra.

Nehra told DNA, “We were all having a good time and celebrating Yuvi’s birthday. Nothing happened when I was there. I think the whole thing has been blown out of proportion.”

Neelam Mahajan said, “I received a call from my son at around 2:45am. He was crying. I could hear people hurling abuse at him. That’s when I landed up at the Singh residence.”

In her complaint, Neelam alleged that Yuvraj Singh, his mother, and Kim Sharma abused her: “When I went to rescue my son, Yuvraj’s mother, brother, and nine others abused me.”

Yuvraj Mahajan said, “I came to the party with a friend. I don’t know Yuvraj Singh personally. They beat me up for no rhyme or reason. Just because someone is a celebrity, he or his friends should not take advantage.”

But Shabnam Singh said, “When Neelam Mahajan came to our house, we tried to make her understand what had happened. It was a small thing… Yuvraj Mahajan felt that the others were sending his girlfriend home. He was drunk and didn’t realise that she left of her own accord. They wanted to go to the press and create a tamasha.”
