Reacting to a criminal case in which he has been named, Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor today said he was not part of an online shopping portal which is alleged to be duping customers and hence had no reason for worry.
An FIR was registered against Farhan Akhtar and Ranbir for 'criminal breach of trust' under IPC for promoting an online shopping site.
Asked about the FIR, Ranbir said, "I've heard about it. I asked my people to check and found that I am not part of it... So I am saved."
An FIR was registered at a police station near Lucknow on September 19 against Bollywood actor-director Farhan Akhtar and actor Ranbir for criminal breach of trust and forgery for promoting an online shopping site which is allegedly "duping" customers.
