Actor Sonakshi Sinha's door was knocked by the cops lately in regards with a cheating case filed against her last year. The Bollywood actor took to Twitter and announced that she was extending full support to the police officers. UP police paid a visit to Sona's Mumbai house in relation to a case registered against her in Muradabad. She allegedly received Rs 24,00,000 for a stage performance but did not turn up for the event.

"An event organiser who couldn't live up to his commitment obviously thinks he can make a fast buck by maligning my crystal clear image in the press. There is full cooperation with the authorities from my end for the investigation. Would request the media not to fan these bizarre claims of an unscrupulous man."

A case was registered against the actor and four others for allegedly accepting the money for a stage performance but not turning up for the event. The event was scheduled to take place in September 2018. "In her nine years long career she has only worked with complete honesty and sincerity. What this man is accusing her of is completely untrue and baseless. This is just a way of extortion by maligning her spot free reputation in the press and it is not something that Sonakshi and her team will succumb to. She is a thorough professional and we have been more than cooperative with whichever authorities that have gotten in touch with us because we have nothing to hide," a report quoted Sonakshi’s spokesperson as saying.

Sonakshi is currently working with Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt on 'Bhuj The Pride of India'. She is also shooting for Salman Khan’s 'Dabangg 3' in which she reprises her role as Salman’s wife, Rajjo. She is currently also promoting 'Khandaani Shafakhana' that will mark the Bollywood debut of singer Badshah and will also be seen in Akshay Kumar-starrer 'Mission Mangal'.
