Mamta Kulkarni in a still from Karan Arjun
Former Bollywood actress Mamta Kulkarni has allegedly been arrested with her partner Vicky Goswami on the charge of drug trafficking in Kenya.
In 1997, Mr Goswami was jailed in Dubai for drug-related offences. He left prison in 2012, having forged a relationship with Mamta while in jail. They have since reportedly been living in Nairobi, Kenya.
Mamta, now 42, starred in hit films like
Karan Arjun and
Baazi in the '90s. Her last film of note was Rajkumar Santoshi's
China Gate in 1998, which proved to be a flop. She made some lacklustre appearances in obscure films like 2001's
Censor and 2002's
Kabhie Tum Kabhie Hum.
Mamta then quietly faded away, resurfacing some years ago after a Dubai-based newspaper spotted her visiting her partner in jail.
