Tamannaah Bhatia Summoned By Cyber Cell for Promoting Mahadev App's Subsidiary

Actor Tamannaah Bhatia has been summoned by the Maharashtra cyber cell for allegedly promoting a subsidiary of the Mahadev online betting and gaming app. According to reports, the actor had been allegedly promoting the viewing of the Indian Premier Matches (IPL) matches on the Fairplay app.

Bhatia has been summoned to appear before the cyber cell next week, as a witness.

According to an NDTV report, a broadcaster complaint mentioned that some IPL matches were illegally streamed on the app. So far, the Maharashtra cyber cell has recorded statements of other Bollywood celebrities like Baadshah and managers of Sanjay Dutt and Jacqueline Fernandez.

FairPlay is a betting exchange platform which offers a variety of sports and entertainment gambling. Cricket is the most popular sport on FairPlay, followed by football and tennis.

In continuation of the report, all matches are streamed live for players to watch and win simultaneously. FairPlay is a subsidiary of the Mahadev betting app, which also provides platforms for illegal betting in live games like cricket, poker, badminton, tennis, football card games, and chance games.

The Mahadev betting app faced scrutiny last year when actors Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor appeared in ads for the app, leading to their questioning by the Enforcement Directorate.
