MUMBAI: FIR FILED AGAINST RANVEER SINGH

By a staff reporter- The Mumbai police have registered an FIR against Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh for "hurting the

sentiments of women" after photos of his nude photo shoot went viral on social media. Ranveer Singh has been booked under Sections 509, 292 and 294 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Section 67 A of the IT Act. An FIR was lodged against him at the Chembur police station on Tuesday. The complaint applications were filed separately at the Chembur police station by the head of the office of a non-governmental organization (NGO), also based in the eastern suburbs of Mumbai, and a female lawyer.

Ranveer Singh was photographed naked by PAPER magazine. In the pictures, the actor has stripped down to nothing as he poses on a Turkish carpet. His photoshoot was inspired by Burt Reynolds, who shot a similar act for Cosmopolitan magazine. While many praised Singh for his bold photoshoot, it also landed him in hot water with certain sections of social media. After receiving support and being trolled in equal measure, he is now in legal trouble with an FIR lodged against him.
