Actor Swara Bhasker in a tweet on Wednesday (30 July) denied allegations made by former RAW officer N K Sood that Deepika Padukone received Rs 5 crore from a British-Pakistani businessman Aneel Mussarat for going to the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) to show solidarity with leftist protesters.
These allegations against Padukone were made by the former RAW officer N K Sood in his YouTube videos wherein he talked about Bollywood's alleged Pakistani connection. The clips soon went viral on social media.
Sood in the above video claims that Padukone had visited the JNU campus on the request of Mussarrat who had made a phone call to her from Dubai.
Similarly in another video Sood reiterated the allegations against Deepika Padukone and added to it by saying that she received Rs 5 crore from Musarrat for her JNU visit.
