Star Comedian Kapil Sharma was recently duped of Rs 5.5 crore by car designer Dilip Chhabria. The popular car designer was arrested on December 29 in connection with car finance and fake registration racket. Kapil had paid the amount demanded by Chhabria for designing his new vanity van but he never received the van.

Kapil reached the Mumbai Police Commissioner's office at around 2 pm today and met CIU in charge API Sachin Waze probing the case against Dilip Chhabria. He recorded his statement against Chhabria and then went and met Param Bir Singh.

Talking about the whole incident Kapil said, "I read about Dilip and his scams in newspapers and then I decided to meet Mumbai Police Commissioner. We had also asked Chhabria to design a vanity van for which full payment was done but he didn't deliver. We had also complained to EOW earlier regarding it. I am happy that people like Chhabria are being arrested. There are a lot many people involved in white-collar crime. I do not have the exact amount that we paid, that is known to my accountant."
