Telugu director Pavan Sadineni has been arrested by the Golconda Police after a woman filed a complaint alleging sexual abuse, physical assault, and deceit. The incident reportedly began over a year ago when the woman entered into a relationship with the filmmaker. Initially, Sadineni provided financial support and promised to help her career.
However, the complainant later discovered that he was already married with children. She claims he told her he was undergoing a divorce and intended to marry her afterward. The woman alleged that Sadineni made promises of marriage, a home, financial aid, and film opportunities that he never fulfilled. She also accused him of forcing her into sexual relations despite her health issues.
Specifically, she alleged that he committed physical assault during an intimate encounter on August 5, causing her to lose consciousness, suffer facial and eye swelling, headaches, and back pain. Police registered the case under Sections 69 (sexual intercourse by deceitful means) and 115(2) (voluntarily causing hurt) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
Sadineni, known for directing films like 'Prem Ishq Kaadhal' and 'Savitri,' is also involved in the multilingual project 'Aakasam Lo Oka Tara.' The filmmaker faces legal proceedings as the investigation unfolds.
