Latest reports say that the actor has lodged a complaint at the Vasai police station.

The Vidya actor opened up about the incident and told BT, "It happened while we were shooting in Vasai on Sunday (November 24). I was rushed to a nearby hospital, where I was admitted for about 10 hours. Later, I was shifted to another hospital. I am still in shock because I could have died."
