Actor-director Deepak Tijori has accused a producer of cheating him of Rs 2.6 crore and has filed a case against him. The Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar actor filed an FIR against Mohan Gopal Nadar at Amboli police station in Mumbai on March 15, stated an ANI report.

Mumbai Police has registered a case against Nadar under sections 420 (cheating and dishonesty inducing delivery of property) and 406 (criminal breach of trust) of the IPC and initiated a probe into the matter. According to the police, the actor said that Nadar joined him to co-produce a thriller titled Tipppsy, which Deepak was supposed to direct. Deepak told Police that the film was scheduled to be shot in London in 2019. Keeping that in mind, Deepak has entrusted Nadar with Rs 2 crores and 60 lakhs. But Deepak claimed that the film was not completed in time. After asking for the repayment of the money repeatedly, Nadar dodged him by giving various excuses.

Moreover, Deepak claimed in his FIR that the cheques provided by Nadar kept bouncing. Then Deepak decided to lodge a complaint against him. The officer-in-charge at Amboli said that they have started the investigation. No arrest has been made so far.

On the work front, Deepak was last seen in the web series Illegal- Justice, Out of Order and Abhay.
