The police identified the accused man and his wife as residents of Pimpri's Vallabhnagar. "In his complaint, the techie alleged that the accused (Vallabhnagar resident) was seated behind him and kept narrating the movie's story to his wife. This prompted the techie to politely ask him to stop spoiling the suspense for him and his wife and sister (who were accompanying him)," sub-inspector S Mohite of the Chinchwad police told TOI.
