In February this year actress Gehana Vasisth, of Gandii Baat fame, was arrested by Crime Branch for her alleged role in a porn racket. The actress was arrested along with several others after police busted an alleged porn racket in Mumbai’s Madh Island. Now after spending almost five months in custody, the session court at Dindoshi has finally granted bail to the actress.
According to the report by Telly Chakkar, Gehana’s publicist Flynn Remedios confirmed that she has been granted bail. Her publicist had also claimed that she is unnecessarily being framed in a porn racket.
Sharing the details about the delay in her bail, her publicist was quoted saying as, “Finally, after a long wait of nearly 5 months, Gehana Vasisth will walk free. The bail matter was held up as due to the lockdown declared in Maharashtra, the courts were almost non-functional and it was impossible to get the matter on board for hearing even in the Bombay High Court. Then, from May till the first week of June, the courts were on vacation and the holiday courts were reluctant to oblige her bail application. It was left to the regular Court of Sessions to hear the bail application, which was finally disposed off on Friday.”

Reportedly, the actress will now have to provide sureties to the court and only then her bail formalities will be completed. Previously an FIR was registered against the accused for forcing women to expose for porn movies. The police had stated that the accused allegedly used to lure aspiring actors into porn work on the pretext of offering them roles in the film. Last month, Gehana after recovering from Covid in Byculla jail had suffered a major stroke and was shifted to the cardiac speciality section of Sir J J hospital.
On the work front, Gehana featured in the lead role in Behenein. She has also done movies like Luckhnowi Ishq and Daal Mein Kuch Kaala Hai, among others.
