Following this threat call Bandra Police Station filed a case under sections 308(4) and 351(3)(4).
As per Mumbai police investigation the threat has come from a man named Faizan, a resident of Raipur, Chhattisgarh. Faizan made a call to the Bandra Police Station’s landline. After this warning a team from Mumbai Police has been sent to Raipur for further investigation.
According to media reports, the caller allegedly demanded a heavy amount in ransom to avoid harming the actor.
