Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 28 (ANI): Actor Satendra Soni, who is known for his roles in ‘Laapataa Ladies’ and ‘Mirzapur,’ has shared a video on social media alleging that he had a disturbing experience while shooting for a film in Madhya Pradesh.

Soni shared what had happened during the shoot. He said, “I came to Maihar to work on a film directed by Pushpendra Singh called Pedh Palkhi. He gave us Rs 50,000 as a signing amount and told us the remaining payment would be made during the shoot.
