The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai Police has recently recorded fresh statements from Shilpa Shetty and her husband, businessman Raj Kundra, in connection with the alleged ₹60 crore cheating case.
During questioning, Kundra explained that his business, which dealt in electrical and household appliances, suffered heavy losses following demonetization, making it difficult for the company to repay borrowed funds. This marks the second time his statement has been recorded, and officials have indicated that he will be summoned again in the coming weeks.
Shilpa Shetty was also interrogated for nearly four and a half hours regarding the allegations. The case stems from claims by businessman Deepak Kothari, who alleged that Shilpa and Raj conspired to cheat him out of over ₹60 crores. According to Kothari, the money, which was provided for business expansion between 2015 and 2023, was allegedly diverted for personal expenses.
Reports suggest that Kundra admitted that a portion of the ₹60 crore was paid to actresses Bipasha Basu and Neha Dhupia as fees. Investigations further revealed that funds were transferred from the company’s accounts to several individuals, including Shilpa, Bipasha, Neha, and also traced to Ektaa Kapoor’s Balaji Entertainment.
Recently, the Bombay High Court denied Shilpa and Raj permission for international travel. Shilpa’s lawyer stated that she needed to go to Colombo for a YouTube event. However, the court clarified that permission to travel would only be considered after the alleged ₹60 crore is repaid.
