After the clip went viral, many social media users requested Pune Police to take action against Gandhi and Salunkhe.

“After we got information about the video, we launched investigations and managed to trace them. They were summoned to the police station late last night and placed under arrest. We have charged them under IPC Section 336 and others,” Senior Inspector of Bharti Vidyapeeth Police Station, Dashrath Patil told IANS.

Patil, however, said the two would not be remanded to custody as the offense is minor and carries a jail term of less than six months plus a fine, or both. He added that the search is on for the third person who was involved in the stunt – he shot the whole thing on his mobile phone.
