Follow Newsd On  

The sexual harassment case filed by Tanushree Dutta against actor Nana Patekar has been closed by the Mumbai Police on grounds that there was no ‘no prima facie case against the actor. The suburban Oshiwara police on Wednesday filed a ‘B Summary’ report before a metropolitan magistrate in Andheri.

Dutta filed a complaint against Patekar in October 2018 in which she accused him of harassing and misbehaving with her while shooting a song on the sets of the film “Horn Ok Pleasss” in 2008.

She also alleged that during the shooting of the song sequence, Patekar inappropriately touched her even after she had clearly mentioned that she will not perform lewd, vulgar or uncomfortable steps.

Going by the various reports, Tanushree claimed that choreographer Ganesh Acharya had also stepped aside ‘obediently’ when Nana tried to molest her. Later, Tanushree had walked out of the film and Rakhi Sawant replaced her in the song.
