Social media sensation and actress Anjali Arora, who rose to fame with her viral dance reel on Kacha Badam, has found herself in a legal controversy.

Separately, an application has been submitted to the Swaroop Nagar police station in Delhi, requesting the registration of a fraud case against the influencer and her manager.
Advocate Karim Ahmed Siddiqui further revealed that the legal notice demands Rs 1 crore in damages for alleged defamation and an additional Rs 20 lakh for financial losses reportedly caused by Anjali Arora’s abrupt exit from the event. The organisers claimed she was expected to spend 45 minutes on stage and felicitate sponsors and special guests by presenting them with mementoes.
