Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty and her husband, businessman Raj Kundra, have been booked by Mumbai's Economic Offences Wing (EOW) in connection with a ₹60.4 crore cheating case. The complaint, filed by businessman Deepak Kothari, alleges that between 2015 and 2023, the couple misappropriated funds intended for business expansion of their now-defunct company, Best Deal TV Pvt Ltd. Kothari claims that the funds, initially presented as a loan, were later reclassified as an investment without proper disclosure, leading to financial misconduct. The couple has denied the allegations, describing the transaction as an old business deal without criminal intent. The EOW is currently investigating the matter. (PC: Wikimedia Commons)
