Filmmaker Shakeel Noorani was arrested by police in a Satara farmhouse following allegations of rape and sexual assault filed by an actress.
The actress alleged that the incident occurred after she first met Noorani in 2016, claiming she was sedated and threatened during the encounter.
Noorani has been booked under sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and has been remanded in police custody while his lawyer denies the allegations.
