Veteran actress Rati Agnihotri`s son, Tanuj Virwani, recently revealed that his spot boy was caught stealing at their house. Interestingly, the spot boy had been working with the actor for more than 10 years and was caught stealing personal belongings from his Mumbai home. Tanuj and his family allegedly began to realise that things were going missing from their house. Soon, they found the culprit and recovered many of the stolen items from him.
Tanuj Virwani reveals his spot boy was caught stealing
While talking to Bollywood Bubble, Tanuj revealed, “Off-late, we had been noticing that a lot of items in our home, starting from currency of other countries where we travelled or other expensive items like watches and stuff have just been going missing. To be honest, we aren`t the kind of family who prefers keeping CCTV at home. We ideally believe in trusting our people. But, it was brought to our notice that it was my spot boy. He has been spot boy for more than 10 years and even lives with me in the same house. Naturally, he has a lot of access to things.”

The Inside Edge actor added, “We believe in trusting our staff, and we believe in treating them like our family. We don`t discriminate. So, when we found out, we went through his bags and we recovered some items. However, many items like watches and other stuff haven`t been recovered yet. So, we informed the Mumbai Police soon. I believe it is truly the best police in the world and they were swift to come in and take action. As of now, they are going to be interrogating him.”
Tanuj says he needs to be careful
The Rana Naidu actor admits that he now feels the need to be a lot more mindful. He calls the Saif Ali Khan stabbing incident a massive eye-opener, saying, “It doesn`t matter how good your society or building security is. Sometimes, the traitors can just be in your very home. Now that I am married with a baby daughter, I have to be all the way more careful. I am not always going to be at home.”

He further added, “As actors, we have to travel significantly, be it within Mumbai or outdoors. So whenever I leave, I have to be peaceful about the fact that everything is fine at home. So, this is definitely a huge shock and also upsetting. I mean he has been working with me even before Inside Edge happened. So that`s a long time. I remember even putting up an appreciation post for him on social media earlier. So yes, it`s really hurtful on a personal level.”
