Actor Shah Rukh Khan is currently gearing up for the release of 'Dunki' while on the other hand, his wife Gauri Khan has received a notice from the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as per reports. The notice has been sent for allegedly endorsing a brand embezzling Rs 30 crore.
Gauri, who is a film producer, interior designer and the brand ambassador of Lucknow-based real estate company Tulsiani Group, was served with the ED notice on Tuesday (December 19). Reports claim that the firm is accused of duping Rs 30 crore from investors and banks.
It is said that the Enforcement Directorate is taking action to investigate Shah Rukh Khan's wife about her financial dealings.
Reportedly, the officials will investigate various aspects of the case as how much money Gauri received to become the brand ambassador of the Tulsiani group. There will be scrutiny and they will look for the information regarding the contracts made for the position of the company's brand ambassador and also for other documents.
Gauri might also get a summon by the ED in the case. She is yet to respond to the notice.
As per a report in the Free Press Journal, in a project in Lucknow by the Tulsiani Group called Sushant Golf City, a Mumbai-based person Kirit Jaswant Shah purchased a flat for Rs 85 lakh in 2015. However, Shah didn't get possession of the flat and his money was also not refined. Shah filed a complaint against the directors of Tulsiani Group, namely Anil Kumar Tulsiani, Mahesh Tulsiani, and brand ambassador Gauri.
In March 2023, Shah filed an FIR against the three of them. In the complaint, Shah alleged, "I visited the company’s office in Sushant Golf City the same year and met its directors and agreed to buy a flat worth Rs 86 lakh. I was assured that I would get the flat’s possession in 2016. But since then a lot of time has elapsed and I have not got the flat. Later, I found out that the agreement of the flat booked by me had been transferred by the company to somebody else."
