Actress Mimi Chakraborty has been served a legal notice by entrepreneur Tannoy Shastri, who claims that she breached contractual obligations related to an event where she was expected to perform. Shastri alleges that Chakraborty arrived 65 minutes late to the stage and is demanding a refund of the 2.65 lakhs paid to her, along with an additional 20 lakhs for 'social and financial damages'. Furthermore, the notice insists on a public apology from her for this breach.

In response, Chakraborty, who is also a politician, has reportedly issued an ultimatum to Shastri, demanding the withdrawal of the lawsuit within 48 hours. She has countered with her own legal action against him for defamation, claiming damages of 2 crores. The rapid unfolding of events highlights the high-stakes nature of celebrity engagements, where contracts and public image are paramount.

The case exemplifies the intersection of entertainment and law in India, particularly where high-profile personalities are concerned. The implications of such legal battles can significantly affect the careers and reputations of those involved. As both parties prepare for what could become a contentious legal battle, it raises questions about the responsibilities of public figures in fulfilling contractual agreements and the repercussions of failing to do so.
