Sonakshi Sinha booked for 'cheating', legal case filed against the actress. Read here

A case has been filed against actor Sonakshi Sinha and four others for allegedly not performing at an event in Delhi despite accepting payment for the same.

According to the complainant, Sonakshi had agreed to be a part of his show in Delhi on September 30 and even accepted Rs 37 lakh for the same. However, she refused to turn up at the last minute, he added.

The complainant told ANI, “I tried convincing her a lot to perform at the event and even told her that I will incur huge losses if she doesn’t come, but she refused to perform.” Investigation against Sonakshi and three others against whom the complaint was filed is underway. As per reports, the audience who were expecting to see Sonakshi perform were left disappointed and they even vandalised the venue in retaliation, which is why the organisers incurred heavy losses. Sonakshi and her legal team are yet to respond to the case.
