TV actress Karishma Tanna has reportedly landed in a legal soup. Delhi based event manager Manas Katyal has accused the actress of fraud, cheating and blackmailing him. Manas, who had also appeared on TV in a reality show some time ago, revealed that Karishma had been roped in to perform at a wedding reception in Haldwani on February 16. "We gave her the advance payment, thus booking her for the said date. However, Karishma and her entourage, including her manager Payal Rai and stylist Seema Samar Ahmed, didn't show up at the venue. Her no-show caused us a loss of nearly Rs 10 lakh," he said.
He further added that after being flown down to Delhi, on the way to Haldwani the actress had a change of heart. "She threatened our driver with a false case of harassment if he didn't turn the car around and drive her back to Delhi," Manav added.
Karishma, on the other hand, has accused Manav of duping her. "I was told the show was in Moradabad. When we reached Moradabad, we found out that the show was actually in Haldwani, which is another few hours from there. I had told Manas right at the start that I have a back issue and can't travel long distances." When asked about returning the money spent to Manav, she said, "Why should I return the money? He should compensate me for the mental harassment that I was put through," the actress said. Karishma's lawyer has also begun the proceedings against Manav. Stay tuned for more updates.
