Pay Up: The reciept made out to Aditya Panscholi

Aditya Panscholi thought he could break the law and get away with it.


The actor was involved in a minor altercation with the traffic police in Thane, who fined him Rs 100 for driving without a seat belt yesterday.

"Aditya was travelling in a Lexus from Harinivas Circle towards Teen Haath Naka when his car was stopped.

Initially, we didn't recognise him because of his glasses.

We fined him Rs 100 for not wearing a seat belt, but he refused to pay.

He argued that it is not compulsory to wear one in Thane.

He then left his car with us, came back in 10 minutes and paid the fine," said D S Pardeshi, sub-inspector, Thane traffic department.

Despite several attempts, Panscholi remained unavailable for comment.
