Sharing a screenshot of a news article about the celebs under ED’s scanner due to the Mahadev app scam, Kangana Ranaut wrote on Instagram Stories on Saturday, “This endorsement came to me almost six times over a span of one year, every time they added several crores to the offer to buy me, but I said no each time. Look, integrity is not just for your conscience anymore. Yeh naya Bharat hai, sudhar jao nahi toh sudhar diye jaoge (This is the new Bharat, improve or you will be forced to improve).”
Ranbir asks for more time to appear before ED
Earlier this month, the ED had asked actor Ranbir Kapoor to appear at the agency’s office in Raipur in connection with the Mahadev online betting app case.
On Friday, the lawyer for the ED said that the actor has requested one week time to appear before the ED regarding the summon issued to him in connection with the Mahadev betting app case. Ranbir had allegedly carried out promotional activities for the Mahadev betting app.
