Atleast eight people were booked by the Mumbai Police for alleged extortion and unlawful assembly after a brawl over taking selfies with Team India cricketer Prthvi Shaw, a police official said on Thursday.

According to the FIR filed with the Oshiwara Police by a businessman and friend of Shaw, the matter started at a club of a luxury hotel in Vile Parle East in the early hours of February 16. Some of the suspects who were allegedly seeking selfies mobbed the cricketer, who obliged some and denied others when the requests became incessant, the official said.
