Mother of Accidental Prime Minister’s director complains about domestic violence

Mumbai – Sudamati Gutte, mother of Vijay Gutte director of ‘The Accidental Prime Minister’ has filed a complaint against her husband and six of his family members for alleged domestic violence, at Parli Police station in Beed district of Maharastra.

She claimed that Ratnakar would physically and mentally torture her.

Ratnakar is booked under IPC sections 498A (husband or relative of husband of a woman subjecting her to cruelty), 323 (punishment for voluntarily causing hurt) 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of peace) and others.

“In her complaint filed on Friday, she (Sudamati) alleged that her husband and his family members subjected her to mental and physical torture over a family dispute. They also threatened her to transfer a property to their name,” an official told PTI.

Sudamati also claimed that her husband would frequently booze and visit obscene dance bars.

The Accidental Prime Minister, based on an eponymous book by Sanjaya Baru, features Anupam Kher, Akshaye Khanna, Suzanne Bernert, Vipin Sharma and Arjun Mathur in pivotal roles. It revolves around former prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh’s two terms in office and alleges that his functioning was hampered by then-Congress president Sonia Gandhi.

Interestingly, the entire film was leaked by online piracy websites, making a hole in the box office collection.
