Suchitra Krishnamoorthi is seething and apparently it’s Kabir Bedi and his wife Parveen Dusanj who are to blame. The singer-actress, who is the ex-wife of Shekhar Kapur, claims that the Bedis are refusing to move out of the Beach House flat, which passes on lawfully to her daughter Kaveri.

Apparently the Bedis had previously been staying in Kabir’s daughter, Pooja Bedi’s spare flat which had been willed to her by her mother, Protima. However, problems arose between Pooja, and her father and his wife, after which Pooja went ahead and sold the flat as she feared an attempt to take over the property. Following this, the Bedi couple lived on lease for a while till they moved in with their friend Shekhar, into the flat where the filmmaker, Suchitra, and their daughter had lived together in happier times.
However, it has been two years and Parveen and Kabir are apparently showing no desire to vacate the flat. What’s more, Suchitra alleges that they don’t even pay Shekhar rent for occupying the flat. Suchitra is further irked by the fact that Parveen has apparently got rid of all Kaveri’s belongings and has even stripped the walls off her photographs.

Suchitra reveals that she has sent a legal notice to her ex-husband Shekhar, questioning the issue on behalf of their daughter, who is the legal heir to the flat.

Apparently, when Shekhar is in Mumbai he stays in the same flat with the Bedis, and allegedly when he is in London, he occasionally also stays with Parveen. Suchitra states that when their daughter had travelled to London to spend time with her father, she found Parveen’s presence there rather uncomfortable.

With Shekhar apparently refusing to ask the Bedis to leave the flat Suchitra fears a situation where something could happen to her ex-husband while the Bedis are still occupying the flat. She goes so far as to allege that Parveen appears to have cast a spell on him.

Kabir Bedi, on the other hand, pours cold water on Krishnamoorthi’s claims. He reveals that Shekhar and he have been best friends since their college days and that the filmmaker has been living in London since the past three years. He also adds that they are renting, by written agreement, the Beach House flat which belongs to Shekhar’s sister, Sohaila Charnalia. Sounding extremely miffed by the ‘bogus story that Suchitra has been trying to peddle since months,’ he threatens legal action if the defamation doesn’t stop.
Hear that, Ms.Krishnamoorthi?
