Statement from Ameesha Patel
In her Instagram stories, Ameesha Patel wrote,
“Media reports suggest that certain proceedings have been initiated by Pawan Verma in Muradabad. I want to clarify that this is a very old case from several years ago, in which Pawan Verma had signed a settlement deed and received the full agreed amount.”
She further added,
“Despite this, it appears that false allegations have been made to reopen the case. My lawyers are initiating appropriate criminal proceedings to expose these false claims, while I focus on my work and choose to ignore those who try to create a spectacle to attract attention.”
Background: Wedding Performance in 2017
The case reportedly pertains to a 2017 wedding event booking. According to reports, event organizer Pawan Verma alleged that Ameesha Patel had been contracted to perform at a wedding on 16 November 2017, for which an advance payment of ₹14.50 lakh was made. The complainant also claimed that arrangements for her stay at a hotel on Delhi Road, Muradabad, had been completed.
Allegations of Partial Refund
The complaint states that Ameesha Patel did not arrive on the scheduled date, and after further discussions, only a partial refund was provided. It is also reported that while ₹10 lakh was returned in cash, a cheque of ₹4.50 lakh allegedly bounced, prompting the organizer to seek legal action.
