Farah Khan defends Raj Kundra and Shilpa Shetty after visiting their home amid Rs 60 cr fraud allegation: ‘I don’t judge people…’ | Bollywood News

Farah Khan recently visited Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra’s house as part of her YouTube vlog series, in which she explores celebrity homes, cooks with them, and chats about their careers and life journeys. During her visit to Shilpa’s house, the two shared several unheard anecdotes from their time working together. However, the episode also drew criticism from a section of the audience.
Fans called out Farah for visiting Shilpa’s home and allegedly giving her publicity at a time when she and her husband Raj Kundra are embroiled in a Rs 60 crore fraud case. One fan even commented on Farah’s YouTube video, asking her not to share her platform with them. The comment read, “One humble request: your show is so popular for simplicity, authenticity and trustworthiness! Please don’t let controversial personalities use your show as a springboard for them to land in a place which they don’t even deserve to be in!”
The comment further added, “Mr Kundra has created a controversial image for disrespectfully using Shilpa Shetty’s image for all wrong reasons! Women should be respected at all levels, and the act of Mr Kundra was just the opposite! So please make all women feel proud introducing personalities who are respected in society for whatever work they do! Thanks.”

Raj Kundra, Shilpa Shetty fraud case
Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra were recently booked in a Rs 60 crore cheating case after Deepak Kothari, director of Lotus Capital Financial Services Limited — a non-banking financial company that provides loans — filed an FIR against them. Kothari alleged that despite repeated attempts to recover the money from Raj Kundra, Shilpa Shetty, and a mediator, he failed as they cited pandemic-related delays. He later found that the couple had allegedly used the funds for personal benefit and cheated him.
According to the complaint, Kothari had given a loan of Rs 60.4 crore to the couple for business expansion between 2015 and 2023. A Look-Out Circular has already been issued against the couple.
Earlier, speaking with ANI, Shilpa and Raj’s lawyer Prashant Patil denied the allegations and said, “All allegations are false. We have not received a copy of the FIR so far. When we receive a copy, we will get to know the exact allegations. On that basis, we will adopt the next legal remedy. But this transaction is quite old, 7-8 years old.”Story continues below this ad
