Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty's husband, Raj Kundra, has made headlines once again, this time for purchasing a stylish and sleek-looking car worth nearly Rs 3 crore. Celebrity photographers have shared several videos on social media, showcasing the luxurious electric SUV. In one of these videos, Raj is seen taking his new luxury sports car, the Lotus Eletre British, for a test drive outside his Juhu residence.

The price of the Lotus Eletre starts at Rs 2.55 crore, with the top model priced at Rs 2.99 crore. The Eletre is available in three variants: the base model Eletre S and the top model Lotus Eletre R. Despite his recent acquisition, Raj Kundra has been in the news for several controversial reasons over the past few months. In June 2024, it was reported that the Mumbai Sessions Court directed the police to investigate a complaint against Shilpa, Raj, and their company Satyug Gold Pvt Ltd. They were accused of cheating a bullion trader out of Rs 90.38 lakh in a gold scheme.
Additionally, the couple has been under scrutiny by the Enforcement Directorate (ED), which seized their properties worth Rs 97.79 crore in connection with a bitcoin fraud case. The ED alleged that Raj and others collected massive funds from the public, amounting to Rs 6,600 crore, and promised returns of 10 percent per month in the form of bitcoins. Properties in Mumbai and Pune were seized as part of this investigation. ALSO READ: Shilpa Shetty-Raj Kundra Faces Fraud Allegations Worth A WHOPPING Rs 90 Lakh! Court Orders Probe
Raj's advocate issued a statement expressing their faith in the ED's fair investigation."We shall follow the due process of law and take necessary steps as prescribed under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act to protect the liberty and property of my clients. On the face of it, there is no prima facie case made out against my clients Mr. Raj Kundra and Mrs. Shilpa Shetty Kundra," the statement read. It added, "We have complete faith in the Honourable Judiciary. I believe when we make our fair representation before the Honourable Enforcement Directorate, even the investigation agencies may grant justice to us. We have faith in the fair investigation. We stand committed to cooperating with the authorities as and when required." Raj Kundra, who faced significant legal challenges following his alleged involvement in a pornographic scam, made his acting debut in a biographical film titled UT 69, released in November 2023.
