Mumbai: Actor Tanushree Dutta files FIR against Rakhi Sawant

14 Oct 2023

Tanushree Dutta has filed an FIR against Rakhi Sawant for allegedly tarnishing her image and putting her into distress by levelling baseless allegations.The FIR was filed at the Oshiwara Police Station here on Saturday."Rakhi Sawant had made 5-6 videos where she made false and baseless allegations to put me in distress and spoil my career. She had admitted that she had got money to do those press conferences to spoil my image. She has extended an apology in a video but I don't consider it as genuine. The apology was posted to suppress the issue but she continued with her deceitful motives," Dutta said. She further said that it was not appropriate for anyone to level allegations against any innocent person, especially a woman.Her lawyer Nitin Satpute also alleged that Rakhi Sawant posted all the "vulgar and cheap videos" at the behest of someone."She (Rakhi Sawant) has misused the social media... Tanushree Dutta was Miss India. Tanushree replaced Rakhi Sawant as dancer in Horn 'Ok' Pleassss and to take revenge she is doing all this. The person behind all this will soon be determined. They will soon be arrested. After this, no woman will indulge in defaming another woman in the country. We will demand a narco analysis test of Rakhi Sawant," Satpute said.Earlier taking to Instagram Tanushree Dutta wrote that Rakhi Sawant had made false and baseless allegations about her in several YouTube videos in 2018.

Cameraman seen damaging Tanushree Duttas car in 2008 video reveals SHOCKING TRUTH about the incident

1 Oct 2019

Last week, Tanushree Dutta shook Bollywood after she accused veteran actor Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her on sets of the film Horn Ok Pleassss.With Dutta talking to media about the same and making further revelations about harassment she faced from others as well in the industry, a video of a scuffle from her shoot location back in 2008 surfaced. In the video, Tanushrees car is clearly seen getting vandalized by an individual, which media reports have claimed was a political worker belonging to the MNS party. However, contrary to these reports, the said individual was in fact, a media person who was seeking repayment for the damages he faced. Bollywood Hungama caught up with the cameraman in question, who willingly spilled the beans on what exactly happened. Talking exclusively to Bollywood Hungama the cameraman Pawan Bharadwaj detailed the scenario saying, We were given an assignment in Filmistan, so an intern and I went to the location. Till the time we got there, we were not informed about anything on what we had to do. All we were told was to reach the location. So we got there and were waiting from 2PM right till 6PM. Post 6PM, Tanushree Dutta came out to the sets, and as soon as she came out, she went into her car, and her father caught my camera and hit it on the car. With that impact my camera broke, following which a scuffle broke out. After the scuffle, her car came out in full speed and went over my foot and a girls foot as well, if either of us were a few inches ahead, the car would have rammed into us. Further explaining what the setting felt like the Bharadwaj continued, Looking at the speed of the vehicle, it seemed like Tanushree was running away from something that had happened there. If she wanted to get out she could go, why get into fights with media? But it didnt end there, after running from there, about 500 meters ahead there was a gate where the car was stopped, so I reached to the car and asked them to repay me for the damages to my camera. I even went in front of the car, and asked to call the police. Once the police arrived, we went to the station and filed a complaint as well, after which her father reached a settlement with me, and we shook hands. When quizzed whether there were any political workers from any party present during the scuffle, the cameraman revealed a shocking detail that, the entire crowd was in fact media people and not political affiliates. There were no MNS workers or workers from any political party. The entire scuffle was with the media persons there who had surrounded the car because Tanushrees father had got in a fight with them. If that wasnt enough the Pawan Bharadwaj continues to say that while all this was happening there were still cameras rolling capturing the entire scuffle.

Her last release was the lowbrow thriller Apartment in 2009. Confirming her plans of returning to acting and Bollywood, Tanushree says, Yes, it is true. Im going to make a comeback in Bollywood. I am going to make better choices this time and only work with people of a certain calibre, stature and good attitude as Ive learnt my lessons from bad experiences. Tanushree wont allow her unsavoury experiences in Bollywood in the past to colour her judgment about the work ethics in present day Bollywood. I dont want those experiences to define my life anymore and I will make new happy memories of Bollywood. So ideally I would like to do something with an A- list team that presents me well and brings out my best talent out of me by giving me a positive and fun work environment.
