For meeting up with Bollywood celebs: Bahraini royal sued for failing to pay £27m

LAHORE – A Bahraini royal, Al-Khalifa, has been accused of not keeping his end of the bargain of paying $35m (£27m) to meet 26 Bollywood stars for whom we had “unbridled desire and fantasy”.

Egyptian businessman, Ahmed Adel Abdallah Ahmed, claims that he struck a deal with Al Khalifa to arrange meetings with 26 Bollywood stars whose names were handed to him by Al Khalifa.

The Sheikh allegedly met stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Salman Khan, and Ranveer Singh.

“I am deeply disappointed that someone whom I had come to think of as a good friend is bringing this claim,” the Sheikh said in a prepared statement. “I was trusting when Ahmed offered to introduce me to my Bollywood idols. I have since been pursued by Ahmed for enormous sums of money, despite having been very generous to him in the past. I do not accept that there was ever any contractual arrangement between us, let alone one that was exclusive and could never be terminated. I believe this claim has no merit, and I shall defend it.”
