Ameesha Patel, best known for her recent comeback in Gadar 2, has issued a strong personal statement addressing media reports about a non-bailable warrant allegedly issued by a Moradabad court in connection with a 2017 cheque bounce case. The matter, reportedly filed by event organizer Pawan Kumar Verma, concerns an unpaid wedding performance advance amounting to ₹14.50 lakh.
Taking to social media on February 16, 2026, the actress clarified that the issue is “a very, very old matter” which, according to her, had already been fully resolved years ago. In her statement, Patel claimed that Verma had signed a settlement deed and received the entire agreed amount, thereby closing the dispute. She expressed surprise at the resurfacing of the issue, calling the renewed proceedings “false allegations.”
Patel further stated that her legal team is now initiating appropriate criminal proceedings for cheating against the complainant. According to her note, the move aims to “expose his lies” and counter what she describes as an attempt to create unnecessary controversy. The actress also indicated that she would rather focus on her professional commitments than engage in what she termed a “public spectacle for gaining attention on false pretexts.”
The development comes amid fresh media coverage of the alleged non-bailable warrant from a Moradabad court, sparking online debate. While some social media users expressed support for the actress, others offered PR advice, urging clearer communication and legal transparency. The controversy has once again put celebrity legal battles under the spotlight, especially when older cases resurface years later.
Ameesha Patel, who regained major box office visibility with Gadar 2, has been actively engaging with fans and hinting at upcoming projects. Industry observers note that legal disputes, particularly financial ones tied to event appearances, are not uncommon in showbiz — but they often take on amplified attention when they involve high-profile personalities.
For now, Patel appears firm in her stance that the matter was settled long ago and that her focus remains firmly on her acting career. As the legal proceedings unfold, all eyes will be on official updates from the court and statements from both sides. Until then, the actress seems determined to let her work speak louder than the controversy.
