Mumbai, August 16
After the 'Big Brother' humdrum, it is another controversy that seems to be building up with actress Shilpa Shetty in the centre of it. It has filed a suit in a city court against her Britain-based agent Jasveer Barton, seeking an injunction against his "untrue claims and demands".
"Shilpa has filed a case in the city sessions court asking for an injunction against Jasveer 'Jazz' Barton's untrue claims and demands. Barton has been sending Shilpa legal notices, seeking a cut from her earnings," the actress' spokesperson Dale Bhagwagar said in a release today.
Terming Barton's demands as "ridiculous", Bhagwagar said. "By filing this case, Shilpa is protecting herself from Barton's claims and demands."
Shetty has in the past distanced herself from Barton, who claimed to be her agent during her appearance on the "Celebrity Big Brother" reality show. |
