Shraddha Kapoor is the latest celebrity to be summoned by the ED in this case. Earlier, actors like Kapil Sharma, Hina Khan, and Huma Qureshi were also summoned and questioned regarding their involvement in promotional activities and financial transactions related to the app. Sharma and Qureshi have sought a week's time to appear before the agency. Earlier in the day, Ranbir Kapoor too sought two weeks' time to respond to ED's summons in the case.

The Mahadev app case has raised concerns over the alleged misuse of funds and the involvement of celebrities in promoting an app that is now under investigation for illegal activities. The ED has been conducting a thorough probe into the financial transactions and promotional activities linked to the app.

The agency suspects that a substantial amount of money laundering may have taken place through celebrities who were associated with the app. While the exact sum received by Shraddha Kapoor remains undisclosed, the ED aims to gather more information about her involvement in the promotional activities and financial transactions related to the app.

Shraddha Kapoor has been asked to cooperate with the ongoing investigation by appearing before the ED in Raipur. Her questioning is expected to shed light on the extent of celebrity involvement and financial transactions associated with the Mahadev app.

The ED's investigation into the Mahadev app has revealed that the app is hosted in Germany and operates multiple call centres in different countries, including Nepal, Dubai, and Sri Lanka. The same promoters are also believed to be involved in running four more similar apps.

The case has attracted attention not only for its alleged financial irregularities but also for its political implications. Some political links of the accused have come to light during the investigation, adding further complexity to the case.
