Talking about the case, in a statement, Ajay Singh said, “Ameesha Patel and her business partner Kunal had taken Rs 2.50 crore for making a film. They had assured to return the money after the release of the film in 2018. The film never released in 2018. When we approached Ameesha for the money, she gave a cheque of Rs 3 crore, which bounced.”

Reportedly, the Ranchi police have reached Mumbai with the arrest warrant. The actress is also slapped with a cheating case, for not attending an event in Ranchi despite taking the fees. The event company had lodged a complaint against Patel.
