The initial deal was of Rs 21 lakh, out of which I had already paid this guy Rs 16 lakh by March,” he adds.

I sensed something was wrong and immediately, I called the police and they said they were on their way. After asking these men what they wanted, I thought I should go back inside. As I turned, one man pushed me and around 8-10 of them started beating me up.”
While the actor revealed the cops taking 8-10 minutes to arrive at the spot, only an old man from the neighbourhood came forward to help him. “It was so disheartening to see that there were people on the road watching 8-10 men beating up one guy and no one came forward to help me apart from one uncle who risked his life and stepped forward. Thank god that the police came on time and rescued me,” said Ansh.
