Income Tax raids on the houses of actresses Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra


It might be a good time to be an income tax lawyer. Following the raids on the houses of actresses Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra — there has been a panic wave among Bollywood actors to clear up before they get into any income tax issues.

“We have got calls from at least three actors asking to immediately take charge of their finances. We have asked for seven days to sort the matters out,” says a leading income tax lawyer.

The expat actors — who shuttle in and out of India as their families don’t stay here — are the first to put uptheir guards.

“We are getting calls to help out with lawyers and people like chartered accountants,who handle the finances of Bollywood movies, and are thus in demand. Some of the actors want to clear up the cash that they had kept in the house,” says a leading producer.

According to sources, the whole purpose of conducting an IT raid at Priyanka and Katrina’s house was to send a panic wave among the defaulters in the industry.

“There is a lot of money that exchanges hands in cash (black money in common terms) which is our target. Unfortunately, crores of cash cannot be disposed off easily. We are expecting a lot of (income tax) penalties in the days to come,” says a source in the IT department.

Katrina Kaif in a double role

No doubt Katrina Kaif is one of the most-demanded actresses in Bollywood today with lots of hits to her credit. But can she pull off a double role in this hero-dominated industry? Well, her good performance in her latest release Tees Maar Khan seems to have instilled more faith on the filmmakers. If all work out as planned, you may see her in double role soon.

Yes, the news is doing the rounds that a production house is planning to make a film with Katrina in a double role. “This is an age-old Bollywood tradition. When Hema Malini was at her peak Ramesh Sippy made Seeta Aur Geeta with her. Likewise when Sridevi was riding a crest of popularity, Pankuj Parasher made Chaalbaaz with her. Now, since Kat is the golden girl of Bollywood, a film corporation that has bought the rights for Seeta Aur Geeta, wants to make a new version of this film with Katrina," Mumbai Mirror quoted a trade guru as saying.

However, the source added that nothing has been finalized yet. “The plan to make a film that has Katrina in a double role is definitely on. There is speculation that Dibakar Banerjee may be asked to direct it. A couple of other high-profile director names are also being floated. However, nothing is final yet. They also need two leading men for the film. At best, this project can be described as a work-in-progress," added the source.
