Mumbai: A film director was arrested on Sunday in suburban Versova after he allegedly raped a girl whom he had promised a role in a film, police said.
"The director Ramkumar Kumawat has directed some small budget films and the victim, who is about 24 years old, had gone to audition for a role in his film sometime back," a senior police official from the Versova police station said.
After the audition, Kumawat met her and promised to give her some work in his films, the official said.
About three days ago after getting no response from the director, the victim called Kumawat again and he told her to come to his office in Versova, police officials said.
"When she went to his office, Kumawat allegedly raped her and told her not to tell anyone about the incident. However, the victim registered a case against him yesterday night following which he was arrested," they said.
The victim has been sent for medical tests and the accused will be produced before a local court for remand, the police officials said.
