<p>The complaint, filed by businessman Deepak Kothari, director of Lotus Capital Financial Services Ltd, claims the incidents took place between 2015 and 2023. Kothari alleged that the couple took the money under the pretext of expanding their business but used it for personal expenses instead.<br>According to Kothari, in 2015, Shetty and Kundra approached him through a mediator seeking a Rs 75 crore loan for their company, Best Deal TV Pvt Ltd, which promoted lifestyle products and ran an online shopping platform. The proposed interest rate was 12 per cent. Later, they reportedly asked him to provide the funds as an "investment" instead of a loan, assuring him of monthly returns and repayment of principal.</p><p><br>Kothari claimed he transferred Rs 31.95 crore in April 2015 under a share subscription agreement, and another Rs 28.53 crore in September 2015 under a supplementary agreement. The total amount was credited to Best Deal TV's bank accounts.</p><p><br>Repeated attempts to recover the funds allegedly failed, and Kothari accused the couple of "dishonestly using" the money for personal benefit. Shilpa and Raj's lawyer, Prashant Patil, has denied the allegations and stated that they will present the "truth" to the investigating agencies.&nbsp;</p>

In August, a case was filed against Shilpa Shetty, her husband Raj Kundra, and another individual for allegedly cheating a businessman of over Rs 60 crore.

Actress Shilpa Shetty has decided to cancel her planned foreign trip after the Bombay High Court recently refused to grant her permission, amidst an ongoing investigation into an alleged Rs 60-crore fraud case. On Thursday, Shetty's lawyer informed the Bombay High Court that the actress would not proceed with her travel plans following the court's decision to deny a temporary suspension of the Look Out Circular (LOC) issued against her and her husband, businessman Raj Kundra. The Mumbai Police's Economic Offences Wing (EOW) had issued the LOC against the couple as part of their investigation into a serious financial fraud case. The couple had approached the Bombay High Court seeking a temporary suspension of the LOC to enable them to travel abroad. However, the court refused their request, leading Shetty to cancel her trip.

General Officer Commanding-in-Chief (GOC-in-C) of Western Command, Lieutenant General Manoj Kumar Katiyar, on Tuesday called for "deadlier" Operation Sindoor 2.0, if Pakistan continues terror attacks in India. Speaking to reporters in Jammu, Lt Gen Katiyar said that India's response next time would be greater, compared to the number of airbases and military posts destroyed during Operation Sindoor. "Unless Pakistan's way of thinking changes, it will continue to take the actions it has taken. In Operation Sindoor, we have destroyed its airbases and posts, but it may attempt something again. Whatever action we take this time will be more than last time... Operation Sindoor 2.0 has to be more deadly," he said. Operation Sindoor was initiated on May 7, 2025, as a response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed the lives of 26 individuals. The Operation was conceived as a punitive and targeted campaign to dismantle the terror infrastructure across the Line of Control (LoC) and inside Pakistan. Multi-agency intelligence provided confirmation of nine major camps that were eventually targeted in the operation, a press release by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting said. Earlier today, Lieutenant General Manoj Katiyar hailed Operation Sindoor, saying the Indian Army gave a befitting reply to Pakistan after the Pahalgam terror attack. Addressing the Ex-servicemen Rally to commemorate 60 years of the 1965 India-Pakistan War, Lt Gen Katiyar said that Operation Sindoor was successful due to the support from the administration, ex-servicemen and local people. He said, "Terrorists killed our innocent people in the Pahalgam attack. The Indian Army gave a befitting reply to Pakistan. Operation Sindoor was successful as we got the support from the administration, ex-servicemen and local people." He assured the public of the Indian Army's readiness to thwart future attacks by the neighbouring nation. "Pakistan will try to attack us again; they always try to do a Pahalgam-like attack, and we have to be alert. I assure you that the India Army is ready to thwart any nefarious designs of Pakistan," he said. Recounting the 1965 war, he said that the reason for Pakistan's defeat was that they underestimated the patriotism of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. "We won the trust of the people of the nation after defeating Pakistan in the 1965 war, and that trust is intact today. Pakistan had an aim to capture Jammu and Kashmir. About 10,000 Razakars trained by the Pakistani army infiltrated. But they made a mistake in measuring the patriotism of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. With the help of the public, the Indian Army chased them away," Lt Gen Manoj Katiyar said. The 60th anniversary of the ceasefire that ended the 1965 Indo-Pak War was observed on September 23, 2025.
