Actor Shilpa Shetty Kundra is once again facing a legal complaint over a monetary dispute.
A businessman has brought loan default allegations against Shetty Kundra, her mother Sunanda Shetty and her sister Shamita Shetty.
Apparently, the trio failed to repay a loan worth Rs. 21 million.
Andheri Magistrates Court issued them with summonses to appear in this case.
Why is this story important?
- Last year in November, the actor and his businessman-husband Raj Kundra were charged with a Rs. 1.51 crore cheating case.
- Before that, in August, Shetty Kundra and her mother were mentioned in the FIRs of two other alleged cases of cheating.
- These arose alongside the widely publicized pornography racketeering case involving Kundra.
- Now it looks like more trouble awaits the family.
Shetty Kundra’s late father took out a loan in 2015
Press Agency ANI reported that the Andheri court ordered the actors and their mother to appear before it on February 28.
Going into detail, reports suggest that the plaintiff, Parhad Amra, is a car dealership owner who had lent Rs. 21 lakh to Shetty Kundra’s late father, Surendra Shetty, in 2015.
The money was due to be returned with interest in January 2017.
Now the trio deny owing him money
However, before the January 2017 loan repayment deadline, Surendra died in 2016. Since then, his wife and two daughters have refused to repay the amount to him, Amra alleged.
Additionally, the trio apparently denied owing him any money.
Although the loan was contracted by Surendra, the plaintiff claimed that his family members were aware of the transaction.
