On January 30th, the actress had filed a complaint of stalking and criminal intimidation against a businessman in Mumbai and Juhu police had arrested him earlier as well.
The complaint was registered under sections 304 D (stalking) and 509 (insulting modesty of a woman) of the Indian Penal Code. The police said they both knew each other; however, the relationship had soured over some issues following which the actress had stopped talking to the businessman. Nevertheless, the businessman allegedly kept calling and following her. After failing to convince the person to stop stalking, the veteran actress sought the help of police and filed a complaint at Juhu police station. An investigation has been launched into the matter.
