The police have confirmed the incident and filed a case against Gupta. But so far, he hasn’t been arrested. The driver’s lawyer, Ali Kashif Khan Deshmukh, wants Gupta to be arrested right away. He says they’re waiting for justice and want the law to be enforced.
Gupta is known for directing movies like “Rahasya” and “The Stoneman Murders”. This incident is big news in the film industry. Now everyone’s waiting to hear what Gupta has to say about it.
The driver is still in the hospital and his condition is stable. But he’s really shaken up by what happened. He says Gupta owes him three months’ pay and that’s what led to the fight. The police are still investigating.
