Vivek Oberoi's Business Partner Sanjay Saha Arrested On Charges Of Duping The Actor Of Rs 1.55 Crore Last Year; Accused's Mother Denied Interim Protection By Mumbai's Sessions Court
Last October, the arrest of the producer, Sanjay Saha, accused of embezzling ₹1.55 crore from actor Vivek Oberoi's company, led to Nandita Saha, his mother, being denied interim protection from arrest by the sessions court. Additionally, Vivek has initiated legal action against three business partners, alleging they defrauded him of ₹1.55 crore.

On July 19, the actor's company, Oberoi Mega Entertainment LLP, designated chartered accountant Deven Bafna to file a case at the MIDC police station on behalf of Vivek Oberoi. Subsequently, on October 3, MIDC police arrested Sanjay Saha. Oberoi asserts that Saha, along with Nandita and Nanda, partners in the company, purportedly diverted funds from the company account for personal use without informing him.

It was alleged that Vivek Oberoi invested in the partnership with Saha through his company, and the partnership entity was identified as Anandita Entertainment LLP. In February 2021, Anandita Entertainment purportedly made the decision to collaborate on a film with actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, with Siddiqui set to receive a payment of Rs 51 lakh.

Oberoi's company facilitated the transfer of funds, and he claimed that Saha and his company misused the funds for unnecessary and unrelated purposes. Anticipating arrest, Nandita sought anticipatory bail, with her lawyer requesting interim protection until the plea is conclusively addressed. The lawyer argued that Nandita, being a senior citizen, shouldn't undergo custodial interrogation as she is not directly involved in the alleged cheating mentioned in the FIR.




Accusations suggest she received only Rs 5,00,000, but she contends her rightful share is 33.33% of the total sum. Clarifying, she mentioned an agreement clause allowing disbursement for partner welfare. The accused Sanjay Saha, is already in jail, and is ready to assist in the investigation. His bail please was recently rejected.
