Bharat Ganeshpure loses his phone to Thak Thak Gang
As revealed by the Police, the actor became Thak Thak Gang's victim when he was returning from a shoot at the studio in Mira Road. Bharat Ganeshpure was travelling through the Western Expressway when he got stuck in a traffic jam. The heavy rains in Mumbai earlier caused a landslide in the area which resulted in a traffic jam.
When the Chala Hawa Yeu Dya actor reached near the Mahindra and Mahindra showroom, a stranger knocked on the window of Bharat Ganeshpure's car and at the same time, another person approached the actor from a different side. Together, they managed to distract the actor long enough for the former stranger to be able to steal his phone. As soon as Ganeshpure realised that his phone was missing, he approached the Samta Nagar police station and registered a complaint.
An official from Samta Nagar Police Station revealed that they have filed a complaint against unknown persons under section 379 (punishment for theft) and 34 (crime committed by multiple persons with common intention) under the Indian Penal Code. He added that they are further investigating the matter. The actor also shared his experience with his fans on social media.
Just a while ago, the government gradually started easing the lockdown and allowed the TV and film industry to resume their shooting schedules. Among many others, the Chala Hawa Yeu Dya team also returned to shoot and altered their show's format to match the lockdown. The team earlier performed various skits in front of a live audience and invited celebrity guests to the show.
