The reel was filmed at the Samruddhi Mahamarg, a big-ticket project to connect Mumbai and Nagpur.
A Maharashtra man has paid a steep price for social media 'likes' after police picked him up over a reel in which he was seen firing a gun at a newly inaugurated expressway. It was a toy gun.
It was after the man was questioned that police found that the gun in the reel is a toy and special effects were used to make it appear real.
The reel was filmed at the Samruddhi Mahamarg, a big-ticket project to connect Mumbai and Nagpur. The first phase of the expressway, connecting Nagpur and Shirdi, was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on December 11.
Aurangabad police said a reel posted on December 14 featured a tunnel on the expressway. Initially, only an SUV can be seen. Then, a man appears with a shotgun-like firearm as "Salaam Rocky Bhai" -- a hit number from KGF -- plays in the background. The man is then seen firing in the air.
