BOMBAY — A group of about 15-20 unidentified persons on Monday night attacked the residence of Bhojpuri singer actor Manoj Tiwari in suburban Bombay.
Tiwari’s spokesman Shashikant Singh said that the mob came at the bungalow of Tiwari around 9 pm at MHADA in Four Bungalows area and asked his staff that they wanted to meet the actor.
“When they were told that Tiwari was out of town, they started pelting stones. They demanded that the Bhojpuri actor shift out of Bombay to his native place,” Singh said.
They also said that Tiwari had made a statement against Shiv Sena while commenting over Sena supremo Bal Thackeray’s comments on Sachin Tendulkar.
Singh said Tiwari has denied reacting on the Thackeray-Tendulkar issue.
A complaint has been lodged with the Versova police, he said.
Police confirmed the incident but said it was not yet known who were behind the incident.
Last year Tiwari’s office had been attacked allegedly by activists of Raj Thackeray-led Maharashtra Napunsak Sena (MNS) as a part of the party’s anti-north Indian campaign.
