Mumbai Police have registered a case against the location manager of the upcoming film ‘Dhurandhar 2’ for allegedly operating a drone without mandatory clearance in South Mumbai’s high‑security Fort area, NDTV reported.
The FIR, lodged on Sunday at MRA Marg police station, names Rinku Rajpal Valmiki, and invokes Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) for wilfully disobeying orders.
