A 57-year-old man has been booked for allegedly posting a derogatory matter on actress Urmila Matondkar on social media, police said. Vishrambaug police registered a complaint against Dhananjay Kudtarkar, a resident of Pune in Maharashtra, after an MNS officer-bearer flagged the post. "The suspect using his social media account put a derogatory post against actress Urmila Matondkar and made sexually coloured remarks," said a police officer attached to Vishrambaug police station.
A case has been registered against Kudtarkar under section 354 (A) 1 (4) (making sexually coloured remarks; shall be guilty of the offence of sexual harassment) and sections of IT Act. No arrest has been made so far and investigation is underway. Matondkar, who has acted in a number of Bollywood movies, had made her political debut as a Congress nominee from Mumbai North constituency in recently-concluded Lok Sabha elections, but lost to BJP heavyweight Gopal Shetty.
After the elections, the actress took to her social media to thanks every person who voted for her in the elections. She captioned the video saying, "Gratitude..is all I have for all of you who stood by me and who voted for me. In my defeat also I stand a winner because of all of you. And I promise to stand by you and never let you down " She even signed off the post by calling herself, "#AapliMumbaichiMulgi" Check out the video here-
