‘Mahadev App’ was in the headlines for the last several months. But a new twist came in this case when Bollywood got involved. Names of 16 celebrities from the film world were linked to this case. Actually, a person named Saurabh Chandrakar is the brain behind this app. Saurabh got married in Dubai in February this year. Many stars like Sunny Leone, Ranbir Kapoor and Hina Khan attended that wedding. Saurabh also gave them money and made them dance. These big faces who attended Saurabh’s wedding are now on the radar of the Enforcement Directorate (ED). ED has made many revelations in this case. This app was run by two people together. Both are residents of Chhattisgarh. The surprising thing is that betting king Saurabh earlier used to run a juice shop.

Film story of ‘Jai-Veeru’
Saurabh and Ravi used to visit a paan shop in Akash Ganga Market of Bhilai every day. That’s where both of them were introduced to each other for the first time. Within a few days they became good friends because they were fond of gambling and wanted to become rich as soon as possible. After this, during the lockdown, both of them came up with the idea of making an app because at that time they were not able to go out and play betting. And then what… both of them together created such a model that more than Rs 200 crore started coming in every day. Both of them defrauded thousands of people and cheated more than Rs 5 thousand crores. The friendship that was formed at the gutkha-cigarette shop later on, Saurabh and Ravi started living in a palace in Dubai. At present both are absconding.
