A First Information Report (FIR) was registered against Ranveer Singh at Chembur police station last month on the basis of a complaint filed by an office-bearer of a non-profit organization.
The actor "hurt the sentiments of women in general and insulted their modesty through his photographs," the complaint claimed.
