When Zeishan Qadri accused of robbery

As someone has correctly stated, the past is something that cannot be altered or avoided. Speaking of the past, did you know that Zeishan Qadri, who is presently competing on Bigg Boss 19 was accused of theft. Actor and producer Shalini Chaudhary, who appeared in shows like Aahat and Crime Patrol, had filed a formal complaint against him.

Zeishan encouraged Shalini to invest in his ideas, and she agreed to become a producer on the television show Crime Patrol. Later on, she even made an investment in the film Halahal, which was made by Zeishan's production company Friday to Friday.

But this professional relationship quickly evolved into one of trust and confidence, and although Shalini thought he was a man of his word, he was apparently taking advantage of her. Later on, he even asked her to produce April, a brand-new comedy series for Sony SAB.

Reportedly, during this conversation, Zeishan said he didn't have a car and asked her to let him use her Audi A6 so he could drive to work. Shalini agreed without hesitation because she trusted him, but she was shocked to learn that Zeishan began ignoring her calls shortly after he took her car.

A weary Shalini considered complaining to the police, but he intimidated her and had others phone her to dissuade her from going to court. But on August 18, 2022, a DCP took charge of the situation and filed a formal complaint against Zeishan.

A report in Indiatimes suggests that Zeishan took her Audi A6 worth around Rs 38 lakh and later mortgaged it for Rs 12 lakh without Shalini’s knowledge. He apparently even threatened to kill her as per a report in India Today.
