Mumbai Crime Branch will now investigate actor Hrithik Roshan's case wherein he has alleged that an unknown person impersonated him and sent emails to actress Kangana Ranaut. The FIR in the matter was filed in 2016.

Roshan's lawyer Gunjan Mangla on December 9 wrote to Mumbai Commissioner of Police Param Bir Singh, stating that there has been no progress in the case since 2016. He requested the CP to direct completion of investigation. Singh on Monday transferred the case to the Crime Investigation Unit (CIU) of the Mumbai Crime Branch.
