Last month, the actor had filed an anticipatory bail plea before the court, a month after the Oshiwara police had booked him for rape.

Amidst the #MeToo movement, Nanda had narrated her horrifying ordeal in a Facebook post in October. She wrote, “I can remember more liquor being poured into my mouth and I remember being violated endlessly. When I woke up the next afternoon, I was in pain. I hadn’t just been raped, I was taken to my own house and had been brutalised. I couldn’t get up for my bed. I told some of my friends but everybody advised me to forget about it and move on. My company was closed but I got a job to write and direct a series for Plus Channel. The man found his way through the casting route and became one of the lead actors on the show.”
