Bengaluru: A complaint has been registered against Sandalwood actor Pooja Gandhi and her political friend Anil P. Mensinkai for not paying the dues to a five star hotel where they stayed along with their crew.

Between April 2016 and December 2018, Ms Gandhi and Mr Mensinkai paid Rs 22,83,129 on various occasions.
