Adil Khatri told indianexpress.com that, “We have filed a complaint with Mumbai Police Commissioner, Mumbai Cyber Cell and Ministry of Woman and Child Development against actor Rishi Kapoor for posting nude and pornographic image of a child on his Twitter account @chintskap.”

He added, “We don’t know who the child in the picture is, but it is offensive as the child is naked and a headphone has been stuck into his private parts.”
