The Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested a man from West Bengal in connection with an extortion case involving popular comedian and actor Kapil Sharma. The accused, identified as Dilip Chaudhary, allegedly threatened Sharma and demanded a ransom of ₹1 crore.
According to police officials, Chaudhary used the names of notorious gangsters Rohit Godara and Goldy Brar to intimidate the comedian. Between September 22 and 23, he reportedly made seven threatening phone calls to Sharma and sent multiple threatening videos.
Following his arrest, Chaudhary has been remanded in police custody until September 30. Authorities are continuing their investigation to explore his potential links with the gangsters mentioned.
**Related Controversy: MNS Warning to Kapil Sharma’s Show**
In a separate incident, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) recently issued a warning to Kapil Sharma’s comedy show, *The Great Indian Kapil Show*. The warning came after a celebrity guest referred to Mumbai by its former name, “Bombay.”
MNS leader Ameya Khopkar took to X (formerly Twitter) to post a “request-cum-warning,” emphasizing that although the city was officially renamed Mumbai over 30 years ago, the old name is still frequently used in Bollywood productions. The party urged adherence to the official name to respect local sentiments.
