Bigg Boss 18's Kashish Kapoor Accused Of Damaging Rs 85k Couture Gown, Returned 'Wet, Crumpled'
Last Updated: Designer Smita Shrinivas has publicly accused Bigg Boss 18's Kashish Kapoor of damaging a couture gown worth Rs 85,000 sourced for a shoot. Bigg Boss 18 contestant Kashish Kapoor faces allegations of scamming a designer by allegedly damaging a couture gown valued at Rs 85,000. The designer, Smita Shrinivas, claimed that the gown was returned in poor condition—wet, dusty, crumpled, and unusable. The designer posted screenshots online as evidence, claiming that initially, a Rs 40,000 settlement was agreed upon, but after weeks of excuses, Kashish blocked the designer, and the agency later proposed a social media shoutout instead of payment. The designer called out the exploitation of small designers under the guise of 'exposure,' and advised others to safeguard themselves by taking deposits and documenting everything. Smita Shrinivas, the brand owner, shared a video of the green gown that was allegedly returned in a damaged condition. 'KASHISH KAPOOR kashishkapoor302 SCAMMED ME OF ₹85,000. This isn't just about one green couture gown. It's about how small designers get exploited in the name of 'collaboration' and 'exposure'. Dot Media Agency @dotmediabase took my gown for influencer Kashish. I shared exact size details (S), but she needed XS — they took it anyway. The gown came back destroyed — wet, dusty, crumpled, stuffed inside-out. This was an ₹85k couture piece, weeks of artisan work. Once in that state, it's unsellable and can't be reused," wrote the designer. View this post on Instagram A post shared by SMITA SHRINIVAS (@smita._.shrinivas) The designer shared screenshots revealing that a Rs 40,000 settlement was offered, despite the gown being worth more than twice that amount. The designer claimed that after weeks of excuses, Kashish reportedly blocked her. 'I asked for compensation or for them to buy it. We settled on ₹40k (less than half its value) to end it peacefully. Then came weeks of excuses — 'Will transfer tomorrow', 'Bank issue', 'I'm traveling'. Finally, Kashish blocked me. When I contacted the agency again, they said my 'compensation' could be a social media shoutout — as if that replaces the loss of a couture piece," wrote the designer. Kashish Kapoor hasn't reacted to these allegations yet. In other news, Kashish hit the headlines last month after she revealed that she was robbed by her cook. She revealed that ₹7 lakhs in cash was stolen from her house. Kashish claimed that she caught her cook red-handed with ₹50,000 in cash and alleged that he had stolen the rest of the amount. Kapoor said that when she tried to confront the cook, he harassed her in her own residence. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Armaan Malik's Second Wife Kritika Malik Announces Pregnancy Amid Court Summons
Kritika Malik's pregnancy announcement comes days after a Patiala district court issued summons to Armaan and both his wives. Armaan Malik's second wife, Kritika Malik, has announced that she is expecting her second child with the YouTuber. Recently, Kritika, who was also the Bigg Boss OTT 3 finalist, took to her Instagram handle and dropped a series of pictures in which she was seen holding a pregnancy test kit in her hands. She was also smiling as Armaan's first wife, Payal, also joined her to pose for the camera. In the caption of her post, Kritika wrote, 'Ghar Mai khushiyaan aane vale hai." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Armaan Malik (@armaan__malik9) Pregnancy Announcement Amid Court Summons Kritika Malik's pregnancy announcement comes days after a Patiala district court issued summons to Armaan and both his wives. The court recently issued notices to the three and asked them to appear on September 2. The summons were issued after a petition was filed by Davinder Rajput, who accused Malik of violating the Hindu Marriage Act and claimed that the YouTuber has not two but four wives. As per the Hindu Marriage Act, a person who practices Hinduism is allowed only one marriage at a time. A Look At Armaan Malik's Two Marriages Armaan Malik married Payal in 2011 and later welcomed a son named Chirayu Malik. Six years later, in 2018, Armaan married Payal's best friend, Kritika, without legally ending his first marriage. They also have a son named Zaid. The three grabbed everyone's attention after they participated in Bigg Boss OTT in 2024. While Payal was the first one to get eliminated, Armaan walked out of the show during the finale week. Kritika was one of the finalists on Bigg Boss OTT 3. The three faced hatred for their participation in the controversial reality show and were accused of promoting polygamy. Therefore, after her eviction, Payal had expressed her desire to divorce Armaan. 'I am done with the drama and the hate. As long as it was about me, I was okay but now the hate is coming to my kids. This is so shocking and disgusting. I have decided to part ways with Armaan for the same reason. He can stay with Kritika while l'Il take care of the kids," she said in one of her vlogs. However, Payal changed her decision later and in another of her vlogs, she shared that she would not divorce her husband. She mentioned that she would prefer to die rather than get separated from Armaan. 'I am back with some positivity. Things will be fine soon. Your love and support will be with us. After a point, negativity will also stop. When people will see our happy family, things will be fine. I am sure about it. Things weren't good in the past too but everything got better. This time also, things will be fine. I know you people won't stop loving us. I am able to gather this courage only because of your support," Payal said.
