A prostitution racket within the film industry has been uncovered by Unit 11 of the Mumbai Crime Branch, resulting in the arrest of 30-year-old Aarti Mittal, a casting director and actress allegedly involved in the operation.
According to reports, Aarti targeted models during various projects and offered them work for good money, with two models having been rescued from the site of the operation. When posing as a customer, a police officer caught Aarti red-handed, with the actress demanding Rs. 60,000 to provide two prostitutes for his friends.
Aarti had also reportedly posted on social media that she was working on a project with actor R Madhavan. In addition to working in television shows, including ‘Apnapan,’ Aarti has been implicated in managing the sex racket. The show also stars Rajshree Thakur.
As of now, the case has been registered against Aarti Mittal under Section 370 and other relevant sections of trafficking and prostitution under the Indian Penal Code.
