Present paper provides a new non-singular model for anisotropic charged fluid sphere in (2+1\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$2+1$\end{document})-dimensional anti de-Sitter spacetime corresponding to the exterior BTZ spacetime (Banados et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 69:1849, 1992). The model is obtained by assuming Krori and Barua (KB) ansatz (Krori and Barua, J. Phys. A, Math. Gen., 8:508, 1975). To solve the Einstein-Maxwell field equations we choose modified Chaplygin gas. Various physical quantities have been discussed and from our analysis we show that our model satisfies all required physical conditions for representing compact stars.
