Celina Jaitly's spokesperson: She was approached for friend Shilpa Shetty’s influencer app JL Stream, not HotShots

Recently, a model-turned-actress opened up about the controversial app run by Raj Kundra. According to the video put out by her, the creative team of HotShots had future plans and was hoping to rope in well-known Bollywood actresses for the same. Names of actresses like Neha Dhupia, Celina Jaitly, Kim Sharma, Arshi Khan, Gizele Thakral, Scarlet Rose, Nora Fatehi, Barbara Mori were mentioned in the video.

ETimes reached out to Celina to find out if she was ever approached. But her spokesperson quashed all such claims, clarifying, "Celina was approached for Shilpa Shetty’s app JL Stream, which is a decent influencers' app for professionals. She wasn't approached for HotShots; she even doesn't know what it is all about. Since Shilpa is a good friend of Celina and they share a warm and friendly rapport, she was invited to join".

So did Celina agree to join? "No, Celina's commitments did not allow her to join the app when it was launched. Not just Celina, many other B-town actresses were approached to be part of this app," clarifies Celina's spokesperson.

Meanwhile, Raj Kundra was produced before the magistrate court on July 27 and was sent to judicial custody for 14 days. The businessman-husband of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty was arrested by the Mumbai Crime Branch for his role in the production and distribution of pornographic content.
