"Avoid unnecessary Heropanti": Mumbai Police to citizens after booking Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani for breaking Covid norms

On Wednesday the Mumbai Police booked Bollywood Actors Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani for allegedly violating the COVID-19 norms by roaming out in a public place without any valid reason.

Shroff was found roaming near the Bandra Bandstand area in the evening, few hours after the 2 pm deadline of restrictions of movement of people outside their houses without a valid reason.

• "A police team spotted Shroff roaming in the Bandstand area in the evening. When questioned, he could give a satisfactory reply to why he was roaming outside. Police took down his details and registered a case under Section 188 (Disobeying the order of public servant) of the IPC" said an official.

The official also added that since it was a bailable offence, no arrest had been made.

The Mumbai Police later confirmed this on their offical Twitter handle and warned people to avoid unnecessary "Heropanti".

In the ongoing ‘War’ against the virus, going ‘Malang’ on the streets of Bandra cost dearly to two actors who have been booked under sections 188, 34 IPC by
Bandra PStn . We request all Mumbaikars to avoid unnecessary ‘Heropanti’ which can compromise on safety against #COVID19
