Ameesha further claimed that despite the earlier settlement, fresh proceedings appear to have been initiated based on what she termed false allegations. She added that her legal team is now taking appropriate criminal action against the complainant for alleged fraud.

The controversy stems from a complaint related to a wedding event scheduled for November 16, 2017, in Moradabad. According to reports, event organizer Pawan Verma alleged that Ameesha Patel had been paid an advance of ₹14.50 lakh to perform at the wedding as per the contract. Arrangements for her stay at a hotel on Delhi Road in Moradabad were also reportedly finalized.

The complaint states that the actress did not arrive in the city on the scheduled date. It further claims that while a portion of the payment was returned after discussions, the entire amount was not successfully reimbursed. As per the allegations, ₹10 lakh was returned in cash, while a cheque of ₹4.50 lakh allegedly bounced. This reportedly led the organizer to seek legal recourse, resulting in the case being taken up by the Moradabad court.
