Mumbai: According to reports, Bollywood actor Inder Kumar has been arrested by the Versova Police, Mumbai, following allegations of rape. A 22-year-old starlet claimed that she was led on by the actor who promised her plum roles in Bollywood and in the course of time exploited her.

On Thursday evening, Kumar and his wife Pallavi had a major fight. After the argument, she went to the Versova police station and complained against Kumar.
“Pallavi also complained that she suspected Kumar of having a relationship with another woman,” said a police officer according to reports.
Inder Kumar was quoted saying, “The girl is a struggler and not to be given any importance. I was on 'hi and bye' terms with her. In fact she and my wife Pallavi had a big fight. I have sorted things out with my wife and she is with me. The girl has gone and filed a complaint, but what she is saying is untrue.”
