Police unable to reach Ranveer Allahbadia
Meanwhile, Mumbai Police reported difficulty in reaching Ranveer, as his phone has been switched off. According to PTI, officers attempted to contact him and even visited his Versova residence, only to find it locked.
The controversy erupted after Ranveer made remarks during the show, sparking public outrage and multiple complaints. While the Khar police have been unable to contact him, they have summoned Samay Raina to appear before them by March 10. Raina’s lawyer had requested an extension, citing his client’s presence in the US, which the police granted.
Authorities have already recorded statements from eight individuals, including content creators Apoorva Mukhija and Ashish Chanchalani, as well as Ranveer’s manager. However, no formal FIR has been lodged against him yet. Additionally, Maharashtra Cyber officials have called at least 50 individuals for questioning, including those who participated in the controversial show. Among them, actor and television personality Raghu Ram has already recorded his statement.
