Earlier, Priyanka Chopra had decided to terminate her contract with Nirav Modi in the wake of allegations of fraud against him, now Kangana Ranaut and Bipasha Basu have opened up about their non-payment and breach of contract issues. As per reports, the jewellery brand is yet to pay Kangana Ranaut full amount for endorsing their brand. It is also been said that Bipasha who endorsed their brand have accused the brand of using her photos even after the expiry of the contract.
Kangana’s spokesperson said, “There is outstanding due on Kangana’s endorsement, beyond the stipulated contract.” The actress endorsed their brand in 2016. Apart from Kangana, Katrina Kaif and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan too have endorsed the jewelley brand.
Bipasha Basu said, “My managers then tried their best to stop the brand from using my pictures post my contractual period… but even though we sent them letters, they continued to use my pictures internationally too, because of which I lost many jewellery endorsements. Post my contract, for a couple of years till now, the jewelllery brand used my pics even though legally they can’t.” Bipasha had worked with the brand in the year 2008 and currently, Kriti Sanon is the face of the brand.
The jewellery brand along with Nirav Modi is an accused in the Rs. 11,300 crore banking scam. Even Sidharth Malhotra had endorsed Nirav Modi’s jewellery brand and now there was news that he has been seeking legal options to sue Modi over non-payment but a source close to the actor said that there was no truth to the speculation.
