Her husband and family are expected to arrive in the city," said the officer.
The officer indicated that the court will decide about releasing her passport and permitting her return to Dubai.
Siddiqui informed police that she took a cab from the airport to the address she found online. At 6pm, Siddiqui entered the flat after convincing the house help, Sangita Pawar (49). In the complaint, Pawar said: "I was alone at home.
At 6 pm, the doorbell rang. When I answered, I found a woman at the door. The woman asked if it was the residence of actor Aditya Roy Kapur. When I confirmed it, the woman said she had brought clothes and other gifts for the actor.
I believed her and let her in after I informed that the actor is out for shooting."
When Kapur returned, he was told about the visitor but said he did not recognise her. "She tried to approach the actor, prompting him to leave the house and contact society manager Jayashree Dunkdu. Dunkdu then informed the actor's manager, Shruti Rao, who quickly arrived in the flat and contacted the Khar police. When I asked the woman to leave, she refused and insisted on staying at the actor's residence," Pawar said in the FIR.
The situation continued for 90 minutes at Kapur's residence before his house help alerted his managers and the police. Siddiqui, who brought gifts and clothing for Kapur, would not leave without meeting him.

Miley Cyrus reveals if she took a dig at Jennifer Lawrence's rumoured affair with Liam Hemsworth in 'Flowers' music video
Miley Cyrus has addressed rumours that have been swirling around on the internet since the release of 2023 song 'Flowers.' Ever since Cyrus dropped the music video for her song, fans have been having speculations if the dress was an 'ode' to Jennifer Lawrence . However, the star is now setting the record straight. In her 2023 music video 'Flowers', Miley Cyrus was seen wearing a stylish gold dress with a hoodie feature as well as cuts on the side. After release, many people started speculating online that the dress was a direct reference to Lawrence . The Oscar winner had previously worn an almost similar dress in 2012 for the premier of a franchise film, 'The Hunger Games'. She had posted alongside Liam Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson. At that time rumours spread that Liam Hemsworth, who had been dating Miley at the time, had cheated on her with Lawrence, hence the reason for their breakup. Fans had since been wondering if the dress was a reference to the actress; however, all rumours and speculations about the matter have been put to rest. Miley was spotted outside 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' for a shoot, where she went out to interact with fans and give out some autographs as well. While signing a placard, someone from the crowd suddenly asked Miley "Was your 'flowers' dress a reference to Jennifer Lawrence?" The singer effortlessly replied to the question by stating "No, but I love that dress of hers," putting all rumours about the dig at Lawrence to an end. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 나이들어 노안+백내장 절대 방치 하지 마세요! 부산백내장노안 전문안과 더 알아보기 Undo While Miley did not make much comments about it at the time, Lawrence did in fact address the rumours.
