News India Live, Digital Desk: Bollywood actress and businesswoman Shilpa Shetty is going through a difficult phase these days about her personal life. On the one hand, while her and her husband Raj Kundra has been facing serious allegations of fraud of Rs 60 crore, now the news is coming that Shilpa has decided to close her famous and iconic restaurant ‘Bastian’ (Bastian) in Mumbai.
Why the Bollywood stars’ favorite ‘Bastian’ closed?
‘Bastian’ was not just a restaurant, but it was one of the most posh dining destinations in Mumbai. Here big Bollywood stars, such as Ananya Pandey, Tiger Shroff and Jackie Shroff were seen doing dinner and party. This place was known for its magnificent C-Food and Luxury atmosphere.
However, no official reason for closing the restaurant has yet been revealed, but it is being seen linked to the case of cheating on Shilpa and Raj Kundra. It is believed that Shilpa Shetty has decided to cover her business amidst this legal battle and controversies. It is also being said in some reports that this restaurant can now open again at any other location under the new management, but there is no strong information on it yet.
What is the whole matter of fraud of 60 crores?
A Mumbai businessman has accused Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra of cheating on investment in gold business. The allegation is that Shilpa and Raj got them invested in gold under a scheme and promised that they would get a big profit. But when the time came to give profits, they did not do so. The complainant has claimed that Shilpa and Raj misuses their position and cheated them for Rs 60 crore.
The Mumbai Police’s Economic Offenses Branch (EOW) is investigating in this case and both Shilpa and Raj Kundra have been questioned many times. However, Shilpa Shetty has described all these allegations as baseless and said that she has nothing to do with this case.
At the moment, this is a disappointing news for those who like Shilpa’s fans and Bastian. Legal difficulties on the one hand and closing one of their successful businesses on the other side shows that this time is really full of challenges for Shilpa Shetty.
