Akbaruddin Owaisi Funny Story In Assembly

Controversial filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has once again found himself in legal trouble. Former IPS officer Anjana Sinha has filed a case against him, alleging that her professional identity was misused in his web series Dahanam.

In her complaint, Anjana Sinha stated that the series used her name and career profile without consent, exploiting them for commercial gain. A 1990-batch officer, she has served as SP and DIG in Rayalaseema and later as ADGP in the Telugu states. She currently heads the National Industrial Security Academy. The officer clarified that she never met or interacted with the makers, nor did she authorize the use of her details.

Released in 2022 on MX Player, Dahanam was a revenge drama revolving around the murder of a communist worker. Varma produced the seven-episode series, which, according to Anjana, contained violent and sexual content. She claimed that linking her professional identity with such material has caused serious damage to her reputation, dignity, and professional standing, along with mental distress.

Based on her complaint, Raidurgam police registered a case on September 10 against the producer and director under IPC Sections 509, 468, 469, 500, and 120(B). With multiple cases already pending against him in Andhra Pradesh, this fresh complaint adds to RGV’s growing list of legal battles.

All eyes are now on how the investigation will proceed and what consequences it may bring for the maverick filmmaker.
