The Karnataka High Court has granted interim relief to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh by directing the police not to take any coercive steps against him in a case linked to alleged remarks mocking a local deity. The order was passed on Tuesday while hearing Singh’s petition seeking to quash an FIR registered by the Bengaluru police.

A bench led by Karnataka High Court judge Justice M Nagaprasanna also reprimanded the actor, stating that hurting religious sentiments would not be tolerated. The court, however, asked Singh to cooperate fully with the ongoing investigation.

The case relates to an incident at the Filmfare Awards event in Goa, where Singh allegedly imitated Rishab Shetty’s character from Kantara Chapter-1. A city lawyer claimed the act hurt religious sentiments, prompting the registration of an FIR against the actor.
