Real-life ‘Dolly Ki Doli’? How cops caught ‘looteri bride’ who cheated 25 men in 7 months

Anuradha Paswan, a 23-year-old woman dubbed the ‘looteri dulhan’, has been arrested by police in Bhopal for allegedly duping 25 men into marriage and fleeing each time with jewellery and cash worth several lakhs. She gained the trust of the grooms’ families before vanishing with their valuables. Her story closely mirrors the plot of the 2015 Bollywood film ' Dolly Ki Doli', where Sonam Kapoor’s character marries multiple men and escapes with their money on the wedding night
