Post the arrest of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty's husband and a well-known established businessman Raj Kundra by the Mumbai Police for allegedly making pornographic films and publishing them through an OTT app, several models and actresses have come forward and shared their ordeal and personal experiences of working with him. However, actress Gehana Vasisth who has worked with him in the past has been defending and lending support to Raj Kundra since his arrest. Now, she has revealed that Raj Kundra was planning to launch a new app and had even thought of casting his sister-in-law Shamita Shetty for a film. In her conversation with Navbharat Times, Gehana said, 'Just a few days before his arrest, I went to his office. There, I got to know that he is planning to launch an app called Bollyfame. He was planning to do chat shows, reality shows, music videos and feature films for the app. There was no plan to involve 'bold scenes' in these films.' She further added, 'We also discussed the scripts. Then we thought about casting Shamita Shetty for one script, Sai Tamhankar and two other artists for another. I was supposed to direct these films and was thinking about it just a few days before his arrest.' She also confessed that she has never met Shamita Shetty as her job was only to direct the film. Notably, Gehana Vasisth is out on bail on the same case, and earlier, while lending support to Raj, Gehna issued a video statement on ETimes and defended the content created by Raj Kundra by stating that 'erotica or bold content should not be mixed up with porn.'
