Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi is in a state of shock after receiving an exorbitant electricity bill for the month on June and took to social media complaining about the same but then later shared that his problem was solved.
This is not the first time an actor has received such a high electricity bill.
Earlier a string of Bollywood celebrities like Taapsee Pannu, Renuka Shahane, Huma Qureshi, Nimrat Kaur, Soha Ali Khan, Amyra Dastur, Dino Morea, and Kamya Punjab among many others have alleged receiving an inflated electricity bill for the month of June.
Arshad, in a tweet, had shared that that Rs 1,03,564 was debited from his account on July 5 for the electricity bill. He then shared a news article about his paintings and asked everyone to buy it.
While complaining about his electricity bill on Twitter on Sunday, the actor called Gautam Adani a highway-robber. Adani Electricity responded to his tweet and said that his grievance will be resolved as long he does not make personal comments about the proprietor. He later deleted that tweet, here's the screenshot of Arshad's now deleted tweet:
He had tweeted: "People please buy my paintings, I need to pay my Adani electric bill, kidneys am keeping for the next bill."
Later on Sunday, Arshad shared that he got a quick response from the electricity company and that his problem was solved.
"And yes there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Quick response from @Adani_Elec_Mum problem solved. All you have to do is contact them.... thank you," he wrote.
Not just Bollywood names, but residents across Mumbai have been complaining about abnormally high electricity bills, which they received after the lockdown.
