Sonakshi Sinha addresses fraud allegations against her

An FIR was filed against Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha on Sunday under the charges of cheating, criminal conspiracy and criminal breach of trust. However, the actress has now given her side of story through her management team.

According to media reports, Sonakshi was supposed to perform at an event in Delhi. While the event was held in the evening, the actress was expected to fly to the capital on a 10 am flight. As per the organizer’s statement, the actress cancelled the flight at the last moment and rescheduled it to 3 pm but eventually didn’t turn up for it. They also claimed that they had paid INR 37 lakh fees, which included her fee as well as her teams’.

On learning about the ‘misinformation’ doing the rounds, Sonakshi's management agency released an official statement on Sunday.

The official statement read, “Sonakshi was approached by the event organizers in Delhi to attend an event. However, despite repeated reminders, the organizer failed to make the payments to Sonakshi before the event as contracted. The tickets to Delhi were not in order/as were agreed, the organiser also didn’t send return tickets for Sonakshi and her team, despite knowing that she had a shoot the next morning after the event. This put everyone in a tough spot”.

The statement further read, “Several attempts were made to contact the organiser requesting him to make the contracted payments and send the tickets, however, they remained incommunicado and didn’t live up to their end of the bargain. Due to a lack of commitment by the organiser, Sonakshi and her team were left with no choice but to return home from Mumbai airport”.

Currently, Sonakshi is all set to start shooting for Salman Khan’s ‘Dabangg 3’.
