A US-based event managment company filed a complaint at the Oshiwara policestation against singers Ankit Tiwari, Akruti Kakkar and Shilpa Rao for allegedly not doing a show they agreed to do.

Following the complaint, an FIR was also registered under Section 406 of the Indian Penal Code. In the complaint, the company also alleged that the singers did not return the amount that was paid to them for the performance.

A Mumbai Mirror report said that the complainant alleged that Rs 30 lakh was paid to a firm Brotherhood Entertainment, owned by Tiwari and his brother. Shilpa Rao is a partner in the firm, while Kakkar was roped in for the performance.

The report also added that the complainant had flown down from the United States to meet them, but they didn't respond to the calls, resulting in the police filing an FIR against them.
