Producer Abhishek Agarwal who rose to fame in Hindi with ‘The Kashmir Files’ and 'The Vaccine War' is getting ready to release his upcoming Telugu film, ‘Tiger Nageswara Rao’ starring Ravi Teja, is in a soup. According to sources, Income Tax and GST sleuths are reportedly conducting searches at his office and home in Hyderabad yesterday.
At a time when the producer was gearing up to meet media personnel to promote his forthcoming film, these raids has sent shockwaves in the industry. Some state that the Bollywood release of his Telugu film "Tiger
Nageshwar Rao" and the money he is pumping in, may have reportedly attracted the attention of the Central agencies.
In fact, the financier-turned-producer is pretty close to the ruling BJP dispensation as his films like The Kashmir Films have supported the saffron-party’s agenda, and this raid o him comes as a huge surprise.
Meanwhile, a few insiders claim that there is nothing to worry because Abhishek is known for maintaining his accounts in a proper and fool-proof manner.
