Bollywood filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and her daughter Alia Bhatt have allegedly received death threats from an unidentified caller who has demanded 50 lakh rupees from Mahesh Bhatt. The prank caller has apparently asked the filmmaker to deposit the cash in a Lucknow-based bank branch.
According to reports, on failing to meet his demands, the caller has claimed that it would result in the death of his daughter Alia Bhatt and wife Soni Razdan.
Mahesh Bhatt has filed a complaint in Juhu Police Station after receiving the death threat call. Mahesh also took to Twitter early this morning to comment on this extortion attempt, “A bolt from the blue in the form of an extortion call & threat to my family was nipped in the bud by the MH & UP police in tandem. Gratitude!”
