Marathi actress Ketaki Chitale who posted an “offensive” post against Nationalist Congress Party President Sharad Pawar has been detained by Thane police, officials said on Saturday.
The development followed a complaint registered with Kalwa police by NCP leader Swapnil Netke against Chitale who posted a Marathi verse denigrating Pawar and resulting in a political furore.
Ketaki Chitale shared a poem penned by advocate Nitin Bhave on her Facebook wall that kicked off a political row and the actress has been hugely trolled for the foul language used in the verse.
