Madhur Bhandarkar can finally heave a sigh of relief. The Apex body of the country - The Supreme Court has dismissed rape charges against the National award winning filmmaker.
It may be recalled that in 2009, starlet Preeti Jain had accused Bhandarkar of raping her multiple times. In November last year, the Bombay High Court had granted bail to Bhandarkar on a bond of Rs. 30,000 and two sureties while in April this year the court had stayed criminal proceedings against the filmmaker.
With this verdict being announced by Supreme Court, Madhur can surely now afford to smile and take it easy.
