Actress Ayesha Khan Detained by Mumbai Police Amid Student Protests; Shares Viral Video Demanding Answers

What Was My Crime?": Actress Ayesha Khan Detained by Mumbai Police Amid Protests

The ongoing wave of student demonstrations, initiated by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) over educational reforms and NEET exam irregularities, has reached Mumbai, bringing high-profile detentions along with it. Actress Ayesha Khan, who recently rose to immense popularity with the hit song Shararat from the film Dhurandhar, was detained by the Mumbai Police while showing solidarity with the students.

Key Highlights of the Incident:

  • Peaceful Stand, Sudden Detention: According to a series of videos Ayesha shared on her Instagram Stories, she had arrived at the protest venue around 4 PM. After her brother and male friends were taken away by the authorities, she remained standing peacefully on the roadside with two female friends.

  • Forced Into the Van: The visibly shaken actress alleged that without raising a single slogan or holding a placard, she was surrounded by female police officers and physically dragged into a police van.

  • No Answers Provided: Despite repeatedly asking the officers what law she had broken and why she was being taken into custody, she received no explanation or accountability. Ayesha and her friends were subsequently taken to the Worli Police Station.

The actress's viral videos have sparked a debate on social media about democratic rights and police action against peaceful citizens.
