“Send Nude Pics, Nude Vid”: Cherlyne Martins alleges Kundra’s producers demanded nude audition video clip
Panaji: In a very shocking allegation, a Goan model Cherlyne Martins has alleged that Raj Kundra’s producers demanded nude selfie photos and a 2 minute nude self-shot audtion video.
She named three producers who were in contact with her last year.
All the three producers associated with the controversial HotShots app – Ajay Shrimant, Abhijit Harishchandra and Prince Kashyap’s whose names have cropped up in the recent police investigation in the Raj Kundra porn racket case were named by Cherlyn Martins.
Another person who acted as an agent between the producers and models – Ravi Gupta also features in the police files.
They have also been named in the fourth FIR registered at the Malwani Police Station and subsequently transferred to the Property Cell of the Mumbai Crime Branch for technical investigation.

Cherlyne Martins who is currently out of the country, but otherwise based in Mumbai, has alleged that between November 2020 and January 2021, she was repeatedly approached by the above named trio on different occasions, to work for the Hotshots App and shoot soft porn films for Raj Kundra’s company.
Speaking to this reporter from Oman, where she is currently living with her father, Cherlyne Martins said: “They kept dropping Shilpa Shetty’s husband Raj Kundra’s name as though he was Salman Khan or Yash Raj Films’ Aditya Chopra. I wasn’t impressed. Though I do bikini shoots, porn is totally out of my basket. I flatly refused. They offered me 75 to 80k per day. They said I could “impress” Raj Kundra with my work and my figure. But I told them to get lost.”
Continuing with narrating her experience, she said she was also approached by a female producer for Arvind Kumar Srivastav aka Yash Thakur’s Nuefliks in November last year.
“I don’t remember her name. She offered me Rs 1.50 lakh per episode to do sex scenes. She said there won’t be any real intercourse but only implied sex acts. She compared Nuefliks to Netflix and Anurag Kashyap-directed Sacred Games. For a moment I was confused between the two, but when I checked Nuefliks on Twitter, it looked like a D-grade porn site. So I blocked her on WhatsApp and never spoke to her again.”
All the three – Ajay Shrimant, Abhijit Harishchandra and Prince Kashyap are absconding and are wanted by the Mumbai police.
It seems they have fled Mumbai after the crackdown in February, earlier this year.
