Furthermore, Kushal shared that the delays were due to bounced checks and broken promises. "After commitments were made and deliverables met, the payments issued in the form of cheques have repeatedly bounced, showing a blatant lack of accountability," he said.

Expressing disappointment, Kushal stated that for over two months, he was given' false assurances, endless excuses, and empty promises' regarding the timeline for his payments.

"This is not only disrespectful but also unprofessional, and it’s clear now that the intent to pay has never been genuine. The proof is undeniable. It’s time to expose this behavior and make sure others don’t fall victim to the same fraudulent tactics," he concluded.

On the work front, Kushal was last seen in Barsatein-Mausam Pyaar Ka, which featured Shivangi Joshi in the lead. The show ended in January this year; however, TRPs declined over time, prompting the channel to decide to end the story.

The series also starred Simba Nagpal.
