The world of showbiz is often associated with glitz and glamour, but occasionally it takes a dark turn, as witnessed recently in the case of Odia actress Mousumi Nayak. On Monday, the Infocity police station took action against the 39-year-old actress, arresting her for allegedly threatening and attempting to extort money from writer Bansmita Pati.
In the city of Bhubaneswar, Mousumi Nayak, a resident of Daruthenga, found herself in legal trouble after Bansmita Pati filed a complaint accusing the actress of making threats and derogatory remarks against her and her family in public.
