MUMBAI: A web series-maker was abducted in his vehicle and driven around in Ghatkopar-Sion, before money was extorted from him by four persons, including an aspiring model. Pantnagar police have begun a probe and are yet to make arrests.
The 42-year-old series-maker is based out of Kandivli (W). In early March, an acquaintance informed him that a starlet was keen to be cast in a series. He called her for an audition on March 6. The 24-year-old aspiring model told him she was ready to do bold roles. They had a conversation, following which they got intimate.
Later, the model’s boyfriend called up the series-maker, accused him of exploiting her and threatened to file rape charges. The series-maker tried to explain that she had consented to having relations with him but her boyfriend was not convinced.
