According to Manjari Fadnis's account, the dog was allegedly hit on the head with an iron rod, dragged away, and assaulted further, leaving him critically injured. Through the video, Manjari sought accountability and justice for Mikey, while urging people to show compassion towards animals

Actors Nushrratt Bharuccha, Bhumi Pednekar, Sandhya Mridul and others joined the growing calls for justice in an alleged animal cruelty case involving a community dog named Mikey. On Instagram, they expressed outrage as they reacted to an emotional video posted by fellow actress Manjari Fadnis.

In her video, Manjari spoke about the disappearance of Mikey, a community dog loved by residents of her housing society. She revealed that people had spent days searching for him, putting up posters and checking with security staff in the hope of finding him. Describing Mikey as a "really sweet dog", Manjari alleged that a resident later admitted to brutally attacking the animal while he was asleep.

On her Instagram story, on Tuesday (June 9), Nushrratt reposted Manjari's appeal and strongly condemned the alleged incident. She wrote, "This is Unacceptable!! This cannot be the world we live in!! I am heartbroken and enraged".

Bhumi tagged the official Instagram account of Mumbai Police and wrote in the comments section, "I am so so so sorry, this is 💔 Justice for Mike! @mumbaipolice."
