" Madhur Bhandarkar&amp;#039;s production company has reported an imposter who faked an advertisement for a new film by the director. The conman sent out a text message intended to lure young women for a pretend paid casting session, The Times of India reports. The message said: &amp;quot;Required 100 girls for a Madhur Bhandarkar film. Pay \u00C2\u00A38k each day for 20 days Shoot! Interested people, kindly mail your pictures to @#$. For queries contact @#$ Brief information will be given after shortlisting. Travel and accommodation is provided as the shoot&amp;#039;s around Pune!&amp;quot; A spokesman for the filmmaker said that the police were informed after they managed to catch out the scam artist. Producer Vinay Chaukar told the paper: &amp;quot;There was a message on mobiles and chat messenger about Madhur&amp;#039;s next film. We tried contacting that number. Finally, when we got through, it was a man&amp;#039;s voice at the other end. We evinced interest in being cast in the film.  &amp;quot;He replied, &amp;#039;The casting is done&amp;#039;. Immediately, we revealed we were from the company and that there was no such thing happening. The person realised he had been caught and promptly hung up.&amp;quot; Bhandarkar denied last year that rape allegations against him from 2006 affected his career.  The director was accused by aspiring actress Preethi Jain of raping her during their relationship.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
