Post the arrest of actress Shilpa Shetty's husband and businessman Raj Kundra by the Mumbai Police for allegedly making pornographic films and publishing them through an OTT app, the actress's role in this whole case has also come under the scanner now. On July 23, the Mumbai Crime Branch team raided the Juhu bungalow owned by Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra, when the official statement of the actress in the case was also recorded. She recorded her statement which went on to nearly two hours. The day crime branch took Raj Kundra to his Mumbai home for the searches, Shilpa Shetty was questioned too. Shilpa was very upset after the interrogation. She and Kundra had a huge argument where she shouted and asked him what was the need of doing such a thing and why he did everything. The Crime Branch team had to intervene between the couple to pacify the actress. Meanwhile, in her statement, she has reportedly denied any involvement in the case and claimed that she was not aware of the exact content of the controversial app in question on which the adult content was being published. While citing ‘more obscene’ examples from other OTT platforms and mentioning that erotica is different from porn, she further defended her husband by stating that Raj was not involved in producing 'porn content' and vouched for his innocence.
The report further states, “Shattered Shilpa told Kundra that due to his actions the family name is getting defamed and their endorsements in the industry are being cancelled and the family is facing huge financial losses. She asked him what was the need of doing such things when they achieved a standing in society”.
As per reports, the actress even denied being aware of Raj Kundra’s app and said he kept her in the dark too.
