Sushmita Sen Loses Court Case Against Abu Malik

ushmita Sen has lost a court battle that she fought against Abu Malik (Anu Malik’s brother) over the payments for the Heat Stage Shows (2006) in which she performed. After almost 20 case hearings, the court ruled in favour of Abu Malik, the event co-ordinator. To begin with, Sushmita had filed a case against Abu Malik in the Mumbai High Court. The grievance that she cited was the non-payment of dues amounting to a hefty Rs 50 lakh. She had claimed that the amount was outstanding as fees for her performances at the Heat Shows in the US, UK and Dubai in May 2006. The shows had been organised by Safdar Hussain and co-ordinated by Abu Malik. But the most embarrassing thing for Sushmita Sen is that she has to now pay a sum amounting to almost Rs 50,000 as compensation towards the costs of litigation to Abu Malik.
