Savita Malpekar’s Gold Chain Snatched By Thief At Shivaji Park; Actress Thanks Mumbai Police For Quick Action

Veteran Marathi actress Savita Malpekar, who is seen in the Star Pravah show Mulgi Zali Ho, recently was in a horrifying incident in Mumbai. The actress' gold chain was reportedly snatched by a thief at Shivaji Park, Dadar, Mumbai on July 19, 2021. Interestingly, Mumbai Police took quick action and arrested the chain snatcher within 24 hours.

Recently, in an interview with ETimes TV, Savita Malpekar shared the horrifying incident and also thanked Mumbai Police for quick action. She said, "I always go for a walk to Shivaji Park in the evening. I went on Monday evening as well. I normally do three rounds of the park and I did the same and sat on the bench. While talking on the mobile, a man came to me from one side and asked me for time. I said I don't know; I don't have a watch. So, he said, look in your mobile. I said I'm talking on the phone, I won't look. He walked away and I started talking on my phone. Ten minutes later he came back and suddenly, hit his hands on my back." (sic)

Savita further revealed that he pulled the golden chain from her neck and ran away in his bike. "Shivaji Park is always crowded, but it was not very crowded that day due to heavy rain. I ran after him, but could not find him. But thanks to police, their car got there in a minute," she added.
