Veteran Bollywood actor Naseeruddin Shah's daughter, Heeba Shah has been accused of assaulting two animal welfare workers at a veterinary clinic in Versova, Mumbai. The incident took place at The Feline Foundation NGO wherein two female workers were 'slapped, boxed and pushed' by Heeba Shah, as confirmed by the Trustee of the organisation, Mriidu Khosla. Narrating the exact turn of events, Khosla informed that Shah was visiting the clinic as her pet cats needed to be sterilised, but when she was asked to wait for a few minutes and requested to sign a consent form, the 39-year-old suddenly became angry and started hitting her workers although none of them were rude to her.
