Reportedly, Bonito was called for questioning by the Mumbai Crime Branch. After investigation, the Crime Intelligence Unit of Mumbai Crime Branch found out that Rs 2 crore was transferred to Bonito's bank account.

Reportedly, Bonito was granted bail after his lawyers informed the court that he wasn't keeping well. He was granted bail on a cash bond of Rs 25,000 on medical grounds.
In his complaint, Kapil, an actor and comedian, told the police that he had paid Rs 5.3 crore to Dilip Chhabria in 2017 to design a vanity bus for him. However, there was no progress till 2019. After that, he approached the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT).
In 2020, Dilip Chhabria sent a bill of Rs 1.20 crore to Kapil as parking charges for the vanity bus. Post this, the comedian approached the police and registered a complaint.
