Bengali film actress Rupa Dutta had mocked Mamata Banerjee for the defeat of the Trinamool Congress in the Goa assembly elections.
In a video posted by Rupa on his Twitter page, he had mocked Mamata’s statement as if she was talking like him.
In this case, two days later, he was arrested for stealing a woman’s wallet at an international book fair in Kolkata.
Police say a diary was recovered from him. Also, the police say that all the details of where and when he stole the money are recorded in it.
But Rupa has pleaded not guilty in court. The issue also raises the question of whether he is suffering from “kleptomania”.
Kleptomania is a form of plagiarism. Claptomania is the psychological urge to steal an object when it is not needed.
But the case has reminded people of the role of Kangana Ranaut in the film ‘Simran’ which was released a few years back.
Pasanga 2 is reminiscent of Muniskanth’s character in the movie. In it, he played the role of a father who, despite being a bank manager, suffers from the problem of unnecessarily stealing kleptomania.
Is this a psychological problem?
The question now is whether the rupee is also in the grip of the disease. However, neither Rupa nor his lawyer made any such statement in court.
First, what is kleptomania? Experts say that this is a serious psychological problem related to the control of emotions. A person suffering from this disease can never control his emotions and behavior.
The person suffering from this problem does not plan and steal for any need. There is no need to enlist the help of others in this work. They do not cause any physical harm to people. They take pleasure in stealing like this.
“Wandering around exhibitions or other crowded places and stealing people’s wallets or money is not compatible with the image of an actress like Rupa.
Who is Rupa Dutta?
Rupa Dutta is a popular actress in Bengali cinema. He has also appeared in several TV series and shows. She played the lead role in the Hindi serial Jai Maa Vaishno Devi.
BJP leader Syed Shahnawaz Hussain has opened his acting training school in Mumbai. Rupa’s social media accounts show photos of him with West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Tankar and other leaders. He also claims to have a black belt in karate.
Rupa Dutta became famous in 2020 when Bollywood director Anurag Kashyap accused her of sending her pornographic messages.
He accused Anurag Kashyap of sending false messages to him and taking stern action against such persons, but it was later revealed that Anurag he was blaming was someone else, not director Anurag Kashyap.
As such, Rupa had mocked Mamata Banerjee last week for criticizing the Trinamool Congress for not getting a single seat in the Goa assembly elections.
What’s the matter?
Rupa was taken into police custody on suspicion of throwing a purse in a rubbish bin at the Kolkata International Book Fair.
Meanwhile, some wallets and Rs 70,000 cash were recovered from him. The rupee could not give a satisfactory answer. He was subsequently arrested and taken to the Vidhan Nagar police station.
“Rupa has admitted to several robberies and pickpocketing incidents. He has also admitted that he often goes to crowded places and parties for the purpose of stealing. In addition, he has written down the details of all the incidents and the amount received in a diary,” said a police official, who did not want to be named.
