The 30-year-old actor Madhur Mittal shot to fame for his performance in Slumdog Millionaire, which won the Oscar for Best Picture in 2008, and TV serial Shaka Laka Boom Boom, a series of adventures about a boy and his magical pencil.
The Slumdog Millionaire actor, Madhur Mittal, has denied the sexual assault charges made against him by his former girlfriend who has filed a police complaint and also accused him of beatings and forcing himself on her.
The incident reportedly took place on 13 February at her home in Maharashtra state’s Mumbai city.
According to an English daily, Bombay Times, a source close to the girl revealed that they met because they had friends in common on social media so he sent her a friend request and they gradually became close.
Calling the allegations “untrue” and “extremely disturbing”, Madhur, who is at present shooting in Jaipur city, broke his silence and said: “There have been WhatsApp messages filled with stories that are assassinating my character. These have been forwarded for weeks to casting directors’ groups denying me work.”
He added that these allegations are affecting him and his family badly and urged everyone not to jump to conclusions.
The actress’ lawyer Niranjani Shetty revealed that “she had sustained injuries under the eye, neck and lips” and was “battered and sexually assaulted”.
“Our concern was her safety, so I sent a letter by post to the police station. I personally went to the Crime Against Women Cell (CAWC). They later called us and the FIR (police complaint) was filed,” Shetty said.
