Much to the shock from entire Bollywood, film director and producer Mahesh Bhatt received anonymous extortion and threatening calls if not paid a sum of Rs. 50 Lakhs. They have threatened to kill his daughter Alia Bhatt and wife Soni Razdan, if the news is leaked outside or the payment is delayed.
In no time, Mahesh Bhatt took to his Twitter posting ‘A bolt from the blue in the form of an extortion call and threat to my family was nipped in the bud by the MH and UP police in tandem. Gratitude!’
He reportedly lodged a complaint with Juhu police and the Anti-Extortion Cell of Mumbai Police is probing the issue. As per the reports we have from Mumbai sources, the call was placed from Uttar Pradesh.
After the disappearance of Dawood Ibrahim and Chota Shakeel from Mumbai underworld, all the Mafia operations have come to a closure. But these subsequent calls from Uttar Pradesh are something very serious and police are already into investigation, arrested one suspect.
