Bollywood Composer Arrested for Alleged Sexual Assault and Abortion Pill Scandal

On October 19th, 2025, the Santacruz police in Mumbai arrested popular Bollywood music composer Sachin Sanghvi, 45, following a complaint filed by a 29-year-old female singer. The singer, whom Sanghvi had befriended on Instagram in February 2024, accused him of sexual assault, using deceptive means, outraging her modesty, and giving her abortion pills without her knowledge when she became pregnant.

Sanghavi, known for hit songs in films like Stree 2, Bhediya, and Thamma, was produced before the court and later granted bail. His lawyer has claimed the allegations against him are "absolutely baseless and unsubstantiated," stating there is "no merit to the case" and that Sanghavi's detention was "illegal."
