In the video, Raj Kundra, Shilpa Shetty Kundra and her sister Shamita Shetty are guests on Kapil's show and he is seen asking the businessman how does he make so much money without doing anything. Kapil refers to Raj Kundra often being snapped partying, playing a football match with film stars, taking his wife shopping and doing leisurely activities. He had further questioned him on finding time to work amid all the other activities that he does?

Replying to which all the three of them - Raj, Shilpa and Shamita; laugh it off. However, Shilpa later pitches in and says her husband works really hard, and sometimes for hours at a stretch.

Maharashtra Cyber had arrested several people last year, some of whom were found to have links with Raj Kundra. 

However, Raj had rubbished the allegations and sought anticipatory bail in June in the case based on a complaint that alleged that certain online platforms were publishing obscene videos as a part of their web series.

Raj had denied having any links to the alleged porn apps case citing that he had exited from the start-up. He had also submitted the documents of his investments and exit formalities to the police.

Earlier, TV Czarina Ekta Kapoor had recorded a statement in the soft porn case on March 26. 

Actress-model Sherlyn Chopra and Poonam Pandey too had recorded statements with the Maharasthra Cyber Cell, in which they had said Raj Kundra was the one who brought them to the adult industry. Sherlyn was paid Rs 30 lakh for each project and so far, she had done about 15 to 20 projects for Raj Kundra.
