Rimi Sen revealed details about the cheating case she filed against her friend. She claims that Raunak Jatin Vyas promised her high returns on an investment of Rs 4.14 crore in her business. However, after he began avoiding her calls, she realized she had been deceived.
In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Rimi discussed the issue and explained why there was a two-year delay in her case. She mentioned that her file got lost during the relocation of Khar Police Station. Since obtaining signatures from 3-4 senior officials is required for the FIR, she had to start the process anew, which took two years. She also shared that the case has now been transferred to CID Unit no 9, under the supervision of Police Officer Daya Nayak.

About the Rimi Sen fraud case:
In her written complaint, Sen mentioned that she met the accused, Ronak Jatin, goregon resident at a gym in Andheri three years ago, and the two became friends over months.
Sen informed the police that Jatin claimed to be a businessman and had opened a new company of LED lights. He then offered Sen to invest in the company for a return of 40 per cent. After she decided to invest the money, they drafted an agreement.
When the deadline of the investment ended, Sen asked for her profit, but Jatin started ignoring her calls. She then learnt that Jatin did not start any such business. After realising that she had been cheated, Sen filed a police complaint.
In 2022, after the investigation, the Khar police have registered a case against Jatin under various sections of the IPC, including 406 - Punishment for criminal breach of trust and 420 - Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property.
Sen is an actor-producer, who has appeared in Hindi, Telugu and Bengali films such as Hungama, Baghban, Dhoom, Garam Masala, Kyon Ki, Phir Hera Pheri, and Golmaal. She also participated in the reality television show Bigg Boss in 2015.
