Couple dupes Akshaye Khanna of Rs50 lakh

October 20, 2013

Akshaye_KhannaMumbai, Oct 20: The Malabar Hill police lodged a complaint against a couple who allegedly duped actor Akshaye Khanna to the tune of Rs50 lakh by promising to invest and double his money in the commodities market. No arrests have been made in the case so far. The police are also on the lookout for an unknown person who was the duo’s accomplice.

The police said they have registered a complaint by Khanna’s advocate Rajendra Dhuru on instructions from the actor.

According to the police, the actor met the accused couple, Satyabratu Chakraborty and Sona Chakraborty, the president and director of a company called Intact Imijet Pvt. Ltd, a few years ago.

The couple told Khanna that they dealt with the commodities market. The duo lured Khanna into investing his money into the commodities market by promising to double his investment. The couple resides at Lokhandwala Complex in Andheri (West). Most of the transactions and meetings were done at an office, allegedly run by the couple in a building near Hanging Garden in Malabar Hill.

Since August 2010, the police said Khanna gave the duo Rs 50lakh but he received neither the interest nor the money. The actor decided to approach the police after several attempts to get in touch with the couple and get his money back proved unsuccessful.

A case of cheating has been registered against the duo, the police said. Considering the amount involved, the case had been transferred to the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) and further investigation is on. “The Malabar Hill police has only registered a case soon after which the inquiry was handed over to the EOW. Whether the company is registered and still functional is to be found out,” said a senior police officer.

It’s all about money, honey

New Delhi, Jul 14: Going down the memory lane, late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput's close friend and actor Rhea Chakraborty recalled her memories with the departed actor as Rajput's untimely demise completed one month on Tuesday.

This marks the 'Jalebi' actor's first social media post dedicated to Rajput after his demise.

Chakraborty took to Instagram to post two pictures of herself with the 'Kai Po Che!' actor and complimented the post with a long emotional note.

She began the note by stating how she is "still struggling" to face her emotions and said that she will never come to terms with the actor's demise.

"Still struggling to face my emotions.. an irreparable numbness in my heart. You are the one who made me believe in love, the power of it," she wrote.

"You taught me how a simple mathematical equation can decipher the meaning of life and I promise you that I learnt from you every day. I will never come to terms with you not being here anymore," she added.

Terming Rajput as the "greatest physicist," the 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti' actor then recalled Rajput's passion for astrophysics.

"I know you're in a much more peaceful place now. The moon, the stars, the galaxies would've welcomed "the greatest physicist "with open arms," Chakraborty wrote.

Full of empathy and joy, you could lighten up a shooting star - now, you are one. I will wait for you my shooting star and make a wish to bring you back to me," she added.

Remembering the bond that she shared with him, Rhea wrote, "You were everything a beautiful person could be, the greatest wonder that the world has seen. My words are incapable of expressing the love we have and I guess you truly meant it when you said it is beyond both of us."

"You loved everything with an open heart, and now you've shown me that our love is indeed exponential," she added.

The 28-year-old actor ended the note by stating how she will love Rajput for a "lifetime."

"Be in peace Sushi. 30 days of losing you but a lifetime of loving you....Eternally connected. To infinity and beyond," she wrote.

Chakraborty and Rajput were close friends and were also set to share the screen space in the film 'Happy Anniversary.'

Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai residence on June 14. The investigation in the case related to Rajput's demise is currently underway for which Chakraborty was also interrogated by Mumbai Police.

Chennai, Mar 28: Chennai City Corporation personnel stuck a home quarantine sticker at the office of actor-politician Kamal Haasan's Makkal Needhi Maiam office on Saturday, leading to speculation that the matinee star was quarantined for the coronavirus.

While there was speculation if Kamal Haasan was quarantined, the Greater Chennai Corporation said their staffers pasted the sticker on the premises because actress Gautami Tadimalli "returned from Dubai recently and her passport has this address (Eldams Road in upscale Alwarpet)."

The present residence of the actress was not known immediately.

The sticker read, "We are in home quarantine to safeguard ourselves and Chennai from the coronavirus." It was removed soon, an official said, declining to elaborate.

Kamal Haasan clarified in a statement that he was not quarantined.

"Based on the notice stuck outside my house, news has been spread saying that I have been quarantined. But most of you already know that I have not been living there for the past few years and the Makkal Needhi Maiam party office has been functioning from there," he said.

Further, the actor said, the news that he has been quarantined "is not true."

As a precautionary measure, he has been maintaining social distancing, he said.
