Only 57k stolen from a celebrity's bungalow? That's surprisingly low! Maybe the thieves didn't realize whose house it was. But seriously, leaving any property vacant for 4 months is asking for trouble in today's times.

The real question is - why was there only a ₹7,000 TV in a celebrity's bungalow? 😅 Jokes aside, hope they catch the culprits soon. Lonavala police should install more CCTV cameras in these areas.

As someone who lives in Pune, this is concerning. The Pawandharan area is becoming increasingly vulnerable to such crimes. The police need to conduct regular patrols, especially around vacant properties.

Respectfully, celebrities should invest in better security systems if they're leaving properties vacant. Basic CCTV and alarm systems are so affordable these days. Prevention is better than cure!

The thieves probably targeted the place knowing it was vacant. In our society too, we've started keeping lights on timers when going on vacation. Small precautions make a big difference!
