It’s the month of love but Cupid probably in a drunken stupor, has been ill-timing and mis-aiming his love-tipped arrows rather randomly, causing major havoc and confusion in the lives of our Bollywood lovers. Agreed, the great Bard had once said that the ‘course of true love ne’er run smooth’ but this many tangles and complications make love seem more like a comedy of errors.

Jackie ‘O’ No!

Let’s look at the “ill-fated” alleged love story of Jacqueline Fernandez and her (ex) multi-millionaire “conman” beau Sukesh Chandrashekar . There have been talks of Jackie receiving lavish gifts from Sukesh and more over, several “intimate” photographs of Jacqueline and Sukesh have been circulated on the internet in the last few months. But obviously, the grapevine picked up the billboard large signs and insisted Jackie had at last found love again. Unfortunately, the ED (Enforcement Directorate) played spoilsport to this alleged love story and chalked the OTT lavish “gifts” to Jacqueline as a part of a 200 crore scam probe that Sukesh was involved in.

It was reported that Jacqueline received gifts worth a whopping Rs 10 crore from Sukesh. The gifts included a horse worth Rs 52 lakh, four Persian cats with each costing Rs 9 lakh, among others. She also received two pairs of diamond earrings, two Hermes bracelets, three Birkin bags and a pair of Louis Vuitton shoes. Of course, Jacqueline, being a good citizen, cooperated with the ED and told them everything but she denied she was ever dating Sukesh Chandrashekhar.
