Both were employed at the Filmistan Studio located on SV Road and while Bharadwaj resides in a shanty outside the studio,Gori was a resident of Jawahar Nagar in Goregaon west.

According to the police,Bharadwaj came home from work on Tuesday night and saw Gori and his friends sitting on his porch and drinking liquor.
