Mithun Chakraborty's son Mahaakshay aka Mimoh has been embroiled in a legal turmoil after being accused of rape allegations. The actor was supposed to get married to girlfriend Madalsa Sharma on July 7, however the wedding got  called off temporarily. The police arrived at the wedding venue in a posh hotel in Udhagamandalam in Ooty compelling the bride's family to leave the venue. However, according the latest reports in Mumbai Mirror, the wedding has been only postponed and not cancelled. Mimoh and Yogita Bali got anticipatory bail after being booked for rape and cheating.

A hotel staff told the tabloid, "got postponed and not cancelled. The family members are in Mumbai. They are not here." Bride's mother and actress Sheela Sharma also recently lent support to the actor in this case.

For the uninitiated, a woman alleged that Mahaakashay raped her and gave her abortion pills in 2015  after being four years in a relationship, in the pretext of getting married. She also claimed that Bali threatened her of ugly consequences if she did not get out of the relationship. This forced her to shift from Mumbai to Delhi, fearing for her life.

Despite the serious allegations on the actor, his would-be mother-in-law was quite confident about the wedding taking place as scheduled. She was quoted saying by Bombay Times earlier, "It’s happening on July 7. Mimoh met her (the complainant) in 2015 and we are aware of it. In fact, Mimoh had also filed a Non Cognisable (NC) complaint against her for creating trouble in the past. Why has she resurfaced now, just a few days before the wedding? Why did she wait for so long to take action? Everybody has a past and we know the truth."

Meanwhile, a court in Delhi pressed to the fact that there are enough grounds for filing an FIR against the actor and also go ahead with the proceedings. There has been no official statement on the 'postponement' of the wedding from either the groom or the bride's side yet. Until we wait for further updates on the case, stay tuned with us.
