Purported WhatsApp chats between businessman Raj Kundra, arrested in an alleged porn films racket, and other members of a group suggested he had a ''Plan B'' in place after Google Play took down ''Hotshots'', the OTT app at the centre of the illegal activity, due to policy violations, police sources said.

The ''Plan B'' involved launching a new application to carry on the illegal business of producing and circulating pornographic content, they said. Kundra (45), husband of Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty Kundra, was arrested by the Mumbai crime branch July 19, in a case, which it said, related to alleged creation of pornographic films and publishing them through some apps. He is in police custody till July 23. At least four screenshots of purported WhatsApp chats have surfaced on social media in which Kundra was allegedly seen discussing about the ''Plan B'' with another member on ''H ACCOUNTS'' group, the sources said.
