#PoonamPandey & #MilindSoman both stripped down to their birthday suits in #Goa recently. Pandey partly, Soman completely. Pandey is in legal trouble–for obscenity. Soman is being lauded for his fit body at age 55. I guess we are kinder to our nude men than to our nude women. pic.twitter.com/qQ9UFQIYXJ

Soman, who turned 55 on 4 November had shared an image of himself running on the beach naked that was shot by his wife Ankita Konwar. The actor was lauded for his great physique.
On the other hand, an FIR (First Information Report) was registered against Pandey by the women’s wing of Goa Forward Party at the Canancona Police Station. GFP’s complaint states the video was shot on restricted-access government property adding that the video shot by the actor-model is ‘a sort of assault on Goan women and has tarnished the image of Goa.’
