BHOPAL: Film actor Raja Bundela was on Sunday beaten up allegedly by some ‘Bajrang Sena’ activists at a cinema hall here after the media show of his movie Pratha which reportedly showed some “priests working as thieves�, a senior police official said here.
Additional superintendent of police Vivek Sharma said that around 25 activists of the organisation allegedly beat up Raja Bundela, producer-director of the film, after the screening of the movie.
According to witnesses, there were no police personnel around when the incident took place. Sharma said strict security was now in force at the cinema hall. Investigations into the case were on, he said adding efforts were being made to nab those who had beaten up the actor. ‘‘Even now if Bundela seeks protection from police, it would be given to him’’, the police said.
