Milind Soman, model and a fitness enthusiast recently shared a picture of him running on a beach in 'birthday suit'. The actor's picture broke the Internet and attracted over 1.5 lakh likes.

A fan on Twitter asked Soman if he would recreate the picture in 'cold weather' as he is currently in Darjeeling. Replying to the user, Milind wrote, "You will have to wait," with a smiling emoji.

Two days after Soman shared the picture, Goa Police registered a case against him for allegedly promoting obscenity. The case was registered after Goa Suraksha Manch (GSM), a political outfit, lodged a complaint in this connection. Soman had shared his picture on his Instagram profile, which showed him running nude on a beach to mark his 55th birthday. 

"Soman has been booked under IPC section 294 (obscene act in public place) and section 67 of the Information and Technology Act after the complaint by Goa Suraksha Manch," Superintendent of Police (South) Pankaj Kumar Singh said. The GSM in its complaint has alleged that the model had indulged in obscenity at a public place. It also said that the picture projected Goa in a wrong manner.
