Turning to CCTV footage for help, police tracked the suspects to a bus, which the duo boarded to head back to the film set. Eventually, police discovered that the alleged ‘terrorists,’ identified as Balram Ginwala and Arbaaz Khan, were, in fact, working as extras for an upcoming film directed by Siddharth Anand and that their disguise was simply part of their roles.
Yet despite a clear misunderstanding of their outfits, Mumbai police went on to book the two actors on Wednesday for “creating panic and disrupting peace among citizens.” The movie’s production unit has also been booked by the police.
