Angel Rai, actress and Mumbai-based social media influencer, has filed a police complaint after receiving death threats via email and Instagram. The 22-year-old actress approached the Bangur Nagar Police Station seeking action against the individuals who sent her death threats. The investigation is underway.
On March 16, Angel received an email containing obscene messages and a threat of burning her alive and dismembered. This is not the first time she received a death threat. Between August 2023 and March 2025, she received several such messages through email, Instagram, and other social media platforms. Earlier, she endured for two years and didn’t make a fuss about it but now she is fed up with threatening messages.
Speaking to the media, Angel Rai narrated her ordeal, “I have been receiving obscene messages for several days. Eventually, I got fed up and decided to file a complaint with the police. Especially after the trailer release of my new web series Ghotala, the accused sent me death threats. Initially, I received messages on Instagram, and I blocked the accounts, but the accused continued to send messages from various accounts. I endured it for the last two years, but now I am fed up.”
Rai enjoys a massive 25.5 million followers on Instagram and 7.77M subscribers on YouTube. Apart from being an influencer, she has also appeared in numerous music videos under music labels – Zee Musie, Saregama and Universal – among others. She is gearing up for the release of her web series Ghotala on her YouTube channel.
