Police filed a complaint against Aryan Khan

According to police sources, the alleged incident occurred on November 28 at a popular pub located within the Ashoknagar police station limits in Bengaluru. According to IANS, Bengaluru police have visited a pub and questioned its manager in connection with a purported video of actor and director Aryan Khan. Police visited the pub for inspection, reviewed the CCTV footage, questioned the manager, and gathered information about Aryan Khan’s conduct, according to sources. Police will decide on whether to register a suo motu case based on the report submitted by the team that visited the pub, as per the directions of senior officials.

Despite the Bengaluru Police Commissionerate having a dedicated unit to monitor objectionable viral videos, the incident was ignored until the media reported it.

More details are yet to emerge regarding the incident. The police are yet to issue an official statement.
