The actress was sentenced for her Instagram post where she went naked while posing with her seven-year-old son in June 2020.
The actress had faced serious backlash over the photo shoot.
It was stated that she pleaded for mercy as the court sentenced her to 90 days in jail.

Poloo’s lawyer, Andy Vortia, had prayed for a more lenient sentence, but the court held that a harsh sentence must be passed to serve as a deterrent to others.
The actress was convicted on her own plea, after she had pleaded “guilty” to three counts of publication of “obscene materials, engaging in domestic violence namely a conduct that in any way undermine another person’s privacy or integrity, and engaging in domestic violence namely conduct that in any way detracted or was likely to detract from another person’s dignity and worth as a human being.”
