Raj Kundra's connection with Riya Arvinda Barde?
Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty's husband Raj Kundra and serious allegations are not new to anybody in the industry. The businessman was recently accused of having connections with a Bangladeshi porn film actress, Riya Arvinda Barde. She was arrested in Ulhasnagar, Maharashtra, on Thursday for allegedly staying illegally in India using fake documents. As per reports, she worked on projects done by Raj Kundra Productions, but Raj has denied all these reports.
Kundra called these allegations 'false'. He told Hindustan Times, "I am deeply disturbed by recent news articles circulating false allegations about me. These reports claim that an individual, allegedly an illegal immigrant, worked for me or was associated with one of my supposed production companies. Let me be very clear—I have never met this person, nor have I ever owned or been involved with any production company that this individual has worked for."
He further added, "These baseless claims are not only damaging to my reputation but are also an attempt to exploit my name for sensationalism and media traction. I have always conducted my business with the utmost integrity, and I will not tolerate such false accusations."

Raj Kundra is planning legal action. His lawyer, Prashant Patil, states, "There are certain reports in social, digital, and print media regarding some alleged illegal immigrants getting arrested by Mumbai police. The fake reports are linking the said alleged accused to the production team of my clients Shilpa Shetty Kundra and Raj Kundra. This is misleading and has been intentionally done to defame my clients. There is a clear ulterior motive of dragging my client’s name in a controversial case for which my clients have no direct or indirect direct connection at all. Due to such a mischievous act of creating such offensive content on social media, my clients are initiating a criminal case with the cybercrime Mumbai police immediately under the provisions of the Information and Technology Act. A separate suit for rupees 100 crores for defamation shall be initiated before the Honourable Bombay High Court against the media houses reporting this fake news.".
