Actor Taapsee Pannu, whose properties were raided by Income Tax officials earlier this week, on Saturday denied allegations of tax evasion, saying she neither owned a bungalow in Paris nor had cash receipts amounting to Rs 5 crore.
She said that the three days of “intense search” were primarily for three things. “1. The keys of the ‘alleged’ bungalow that I apparently own in Paris. Because summer holidays are around the corner,” she wrote on Twitter. “2. The ‘alleged’ receipt worth 5 crores to frame n [and] keep for future pitching coz [because] I’ve been refused that money before.”
Pannu also denied Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s claims that her house was raided in 2013 as well. “3. My memory of 2013 raid that happened with me according to our honourable finance minister,” the actor said.
She added a postscript – “not so sasti anymore”. She was referring to a comment by actor Kangana Ranaut’s sister Rangoli Chandel, who had once said that Pannu was a “cheap rip off” of Ranaut.
