Kanta Prasad’s allegations on Gaurav, and how the tables turned

Things took a turn when the 80-year-old Kanta went on to file a police case against Gaurav for allegedly swindling the donations, while also publicly stating that he never asked for the blogger’s help and that he had approached the couple on his own.

As per the allegations, Dehli Police filed a complaint against the YouTuber, and the police also disclosed that Kanta in the complaint has said that-

“The said video went viral and as per the complainant, Wasan deliberately shared only his and his family members’ bank details and mobile number for donation and collected a huge amount of donation and later cheated Prasad.”

Gaurav was left with nothing but to deny the charges after which he defended himself by displaying his own bank statements. Unfortunately for Kanta, his new restaurant did not kick-off and was forced to shut down in February, forcing him to come back to his roadside kiosk once again.
