Copy of FIR..
Now, Indianewsget has purported audios and screenshots regarding this. In the audio, Sharad Kapoor demands photos of the woman and also makes objectionable comments about her body. He also abused the woman in a lewd manner. This audio was provided by the woman’s lawyer, Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh. He claims it is Sharad Kapoor’s voice.
When the woman filed a police complaint in the case, Sharad’s tone changed. He told the woman that you are doing this for money, God will punish you.
We called up Sharad Kapoor to know his side on this. He said he was currently busy with work with his father and would call back when he was free. However, no callback was received till the time of writing the news.
Let us tell you that Sharad Kapoor appeared in many films of the 90s and 2000s. He was seen in the role of the villain in most of the films. She made her debut in Mahesh Bhatt’s 1996 film Dastak alongside Sushmita Sen.
Sharad- Seema (name changed) My name is Sharad Kapoor, please call me.
Sharad- Hey, not just one day, send lots of photos. Upload all the photos you have in your gallery. I just want to keep looking at you.
Sharad- Wear a dress like this. It will suit you well.
Sharad – Sit in the car and call me.
Sharad- Hey, it’s been 10 minutes. Call me now.
Sharad – Send your saree photo.
Lawyer’s claim – Sharad was naked at home and was also under the influence of alcohol. Apart from these audios, the woman’s lawyer also shared numerous screenshots. It contains details of conversations between the two on WhatsApp and Facebook.
Lawyer Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh claims that when the woman went to Sharad’s house during his call, the actor was under the influence of alcohol. Other than that, there was no clothing on his body. He tried to force it. The woman immediately ran away from there. After this, an angry Sharad scolded her very severely through voice note. Even lewd comments were made about her body parts.
In fact, Sharad had called the woman to his house lying. He told the woman that he had an office in Khar, Mumbai. However, when the woman reached there, she learned that it was not an office but Sharad’s house.
When the matter was registered, Sharad’s tone changed. According to lawyer Ali Kashif, when the woman registered the case with the police, Sharad sent her another message. This time his style seemed to have changed. He wrote: Madam, hello. I don’t understand why you did this to me. Did you do this for money? Well, I have full confidence in God. God will punish you.
Question from the victim’s lawyer: Why didn’t the police arrest the accused? Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh also raised questions about the working style of the police in this case.
He said: Khar police also visited Sharad Kapoor’s house. Sharad himself came to the police station after receiving the notice, so why was he not arrested at that particular time? What were the police expecting? Sharad has now fled Mumbai for Kolkata. We expressed our disappointment over the matter by writing a letter to Senior Inspector Sanjeev Dhumal of Khar police station, DCP Dixit Gedam and Additional CP Paramjit Singh Dahiya.
Police Response – Notice given, charge sheet will now be sent. We called senior inspector Sanjeev Dhumal to know the reason for the delay in action. He said: We only respect the law. Notice was given to the accused. The indictment will now be prepared and sent. Only after this is an action taken.
Debut with Sushmita, marriage to former CM’s granddaughter Talking about Sharad Kapoor’s career, he made his debut with Sushmita Sen in Mahesh Bhatt’s film Dastak. It was also Sushimita’s first film. In this film, he played the role of “Psycho Lover”.
Sharad has worked with big stars like Shahrukh Khan, Govinda, Sanjay Dutt, Aishwarya Rai. He began his career as an assistant director. Sharad married Koel Basu, granddaughter of former West Bengal Chief Minister Jyoti Basu, in 2008.
