This is not the first
time that a film celebrity has been threatened. Bollywood celebs
have always been targeted by the underworld, and latest on the list is Karan
Johar who is one of the most successful director and producer in B-town. The
Bombay Talkies director received an extortion threat message on his phone from
an unidentified number. KJo went and complained to the Khar police about the
same and his case has now been transferred to anti-extortion cell of the Mumbai
crime branch. Reportedly, the police have been unable to trace the address of
the perpetrator who texted Johar as they suspect he is using internet services to
send messages and make calls.
Karan’s armed security
has been beefed up ever since he received the threat. However, police has not
clarified whether the message was sent from a local number or not. Earlier,
producer Boney
Kapoor also reportedly received threat calls from gangster Ravi
Pujari’s men. The police is investigating both the cases and have also
increased patrolling in the area were these two celebs live.
