Local goons of the owner of a Malad West apartment have thrown out actor Anup Shukla and his family from the rented place, just because he asked the former to return the hefty security deposit of Rs 23 lakh that he had paid when the rent agreement was made.

As per the agreement, Shukla could stay in the apartment till February 11, 2017, and hence, had been asking for the refund from his landlord Jayesh Kandolia, so that he could vacate the premises. "We have been forced to put up at the common space of the society," said an aggrieved Shukla.
