Sources from the crime branch revealed that the investigation of the case of threat calls, which were made to the Wadia office, might also require them to meet the actress. 

Officials are currently investigating the case from all angles and trying to find out how gangster Ravi Pujari managed to get the telephone numbers to Wadia’s office. Pujari had called Wadia’s office about ten times on the personal numbers of people associated with the group.
