Actor Samir Kochhar and actress Karishma Tanna's husband Varun Bangera have filed a complaint with the Mumbai police alleging housing fraud against the owners of a real estate development company. Proneet Prem Nath and his wife Ameesha are accused by the Andheri Police of defrauding the families of Bangera and Kochhar out of Rs 1.03 crore in 2022 by misrepresenting the sale of a Bandra flat.
According to the complaint, after Kochhar and Bangera wed their respective partners in 2020, the accused allegedly promised to sell them two apartments in Bandra's Pali neighbourhood. With partial payments, Kochhar bought a flat for Rs 1.95 crore and Bangera for Rs 90 lakh. Though the accused claimed in June 2023 that they no longer planned to sell the apartments, it was later found that the flat had already been sold.
