Actress Nora Fatehi appears before Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court as a witness in the Rs 200-crore extortion case involving alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar. Multiple outlets report that she explains how she was brought into contact with Sukesh through his wife, Leena Paulose, during an event linked to December 2020 activity in Chennai.
In her deposition, Fatehi describes meeting Leena in connection with a charity-related event where she says she was booked through an agency and was promised a car but did not receive payment for her participation. She also recounts a phone conversation in which Leena arranged for Sukesh to speak to her, with Fatehi portraying the interaction as coming through his wife rather than direct contact.
Some coverage focuses on procedural details, including fresh summons and her return to court after a previous absence, while others foreground the substance of her account: the hotel room meeting setup, the introduction, and the alleged offer. The reports largely agree on the core sequence—Chennai event in December 2020, introduction via Leena, and a subsequent phone call—while differing in how much event process versus courtroom steps they emphasize.
