Raj Kundra’s emotional post
“Sukhmani Sahib Paath at home Kept by my wife @theshilpashetty, praying for the success of Mehar and, more importantly, for the strength and well-being of our brothers and sisters in Punjab. In these times when Punjab faces the pain of floods, we hold on to faith and prayer. May Waheguru bless everyone with courage, healing, and hope. Cinema can entertain, but for me it is as about the sewa. Together, let’s make prayers turn into action,” he wrote, while sharing a video of himself and Shilpa listening to the Paath together with their family and friends.
Case filed by EOW against couple
Meanwhile, the Mumbai Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW) registered a case against Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra following a complaint by businessman Deepak Kothari, who accused the couple of cheating him. The complainant reportedly alleged that the couple defrauded him of over Rs 60 crore through their now-defunct company, Best Deal TV Pvt Ltd. He claimed that between 2015 and 2023, he invested the money for business expansion, but the funds were instead diverted to cover personal expenses.
