This is not the first time the filmmaker, known for his cop drama universe, is trying to help the police. In April this year, soon after the nationwide lockdown began, Shetty had arranged for rest, shower and clothes changing facility along with breakfast and dinner in eight hotels across the city for on-duty police officials.
On Friday, Shetty's name started trending on Twitter after netizens learnt that the car carrying Kanpur-based gangster Vikas Dubey had overturned after skidding on the road due to heavy rain. Shetty is one Bollywood director who is known for his fascination with stunts using cars.
