Ranvir Shorey says he filed police complaint over threatening emails

Actor confirms a formal complaint

Ranvir Shorey says he has filed an official complaint after receiving emails he described as threats. The Times of India reported his Tuesday update on X, in which the actor said the matter was now with Mumbai Police and thanked people who had expressed concern. This is an account of Shorey’s public statement and the response reported from police, rather than a finding about who sent the messages.

The actor had posted screenshots containing abusive language and alleged threats of physical violence. According to the newspaper, one sender also claimed to be tracking his location and movements. Those claims appear in the messages described by the reports; the screenshots do not independently establish that any tracking occurred.

Police asked for private contact details

NDTV reported that Shorey first tagged Cyber Dost and Maharashtra Cyber, asking the agencies to take note of messages from two email accounts. Mumbai Police subsequently replied to his public post and requested his contact details through a direct message. The actor thanked the police for responding and said an official complaint had been filed.

The public exchange documents his request for assistance and a police response seeking further contact. It should not be read as a public identification of a suspect or a determination of the allegations. The reporting reviewed for this article describes a complaint; it does not establish the identity or responsibility of the email senders.

The online dispute preceding the complaint

The Times of India places the messages after Shorey’s criticism of the CJP protest. He had argued that political grievances should be raised through Parliament, elections and the courts rather than by disrupting public infrastructure. The new development is his complaint about the emails, separate from that earlier political opinion. The sequence reported does not establish that the protest organisers sent or authorised the alleged threats.
