Jaanshi Apsara Yadav, Nikita Flora Singh and Sagarika Shona Suman allege porn racket has shifted to Kolkata and Assam

MUMBAI: In an important disclosure, three models who were victims of the Mumbai porn racket in some way or the other on Sunday alleged that after the Mumbai police cracked down on the producers like Umesh Kamat, Gehana Vasisth and Rowa alias Yasmeen Khan, the entire porn business has shifted to parts of Kolkata and Assam.

“One of the other reasons is the second or third Covid wave the lock down imposed in various states. Many models from West Bengal and Assam are involved in the porn shoot business. Due to the lock downs and travel restrictions in various states, the porn models went back to their hometowns. Some of them turned producers themselves, while in some cases the producers shifted their business to places like Kolkata,” Jaanshi Apsara Yadav informed.

Two days ago, a Kolkata-based aspiring actress Nandita Dutta known as ‘Nancy Bhabhi’ in her porn content was arrested from her home in Dum Dum. Her associate, Mainak Ghosh, was nabbed from his residence in Naktala. Both Nandita and Maninak was arrested after a complaint was filed against them by two young models at New Town police on 26th July.

One of the two models claimed that she had been forced to shoot a nude video at a Ballygunge studio, where one of her friends had been told to film an adult video at a New Town hotel.

According to the police report, the groups entrap the females from lower middle class families struggling for work with quick money or threatening them with dire consequences and making the false promises of providing a break in the entertainment world.

The police is also investigating whether these porn rackets have a link to the businessman and Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty’ husband Raj Kundra pornography case. Nandita Dutt and Mainak Ghosh were produced before Barasat court and they were sent to police custody for a week.

Jaanshi Apsara Yadav, Nikita Flora Singh and Sagarika Shona Suman have also named three more producers Ajay Shrimant, Abhijit Harishchandra and Prince Kashyap who were shooting porn movies for Raj Kundras HotShots app as well as other apps.

The trio have been named as accused in the fourth FIR registered by the Mumbai police.
