Cheque Bounce Case: Ranchi Court Issues Warrant Against Bollywood Actress Ameesha Patel

A Ranchi civil court has recently issued a warrant against Bollywood actress Ameesha Patel and her business partner Krunal in a fraud and cheque bounce case.

The complainant, Ajay Kumar Singh, is a film producer from Jharkhand. He registered a case of fraud, intimidation, and cheque bounce against Ameesha Patel and her partner.

Further, the court was displeased since the actress didn’t keep her stand before the court despite the summons.

Neither she nor her lawyer appeared before the court. The next hearing in the case is scheduled for April 15. She has been booked under sections 420 &120 of the CrPC.

Complainant Ajay Kumar Singh stated that the actress and her business partner took Rs 2.5 crore from him for the making and doing publicity of a film titled ‘Desi Magic’.

According to Ajay Kumar, Ameesha Patel, and her business partner stated that they would return the money along with interest after the completion of the film.
The shooting of Desi Magic was started in 2013.

However, the film has not been released yet. When the filmmaker asked for his money from Ameesha Patel, she didn’t repay it to him. After a lot of delays, she gave him 2 cheques for Rs 2.5 crore and Rs 50 lakh in October 2018, which got bounced.
