A couple of days ago, it was reported that the IT department had raided filmmakers Anurag Kashyap, Vikas Bahl and Taapsee Pannu's homes. The filmmakers happened to be former partners at Phantom Films which was dissolved in 2018. Yesterday, new details about the raid had surfaced. It was said that the officials had 'found evidence related to manipulation and under-valuation of share transactions of Phantom Films amongst the film directors and shareholders, having tax implication of about Rs 350 crore.' On raiding Taapsee Pannu's house, the reports said that the official had found cash receipts of about Rs 5 crore. There were also a few more details of the Thappad actress having a Bungalow in Paris and more.
Taapsee Pannu had kept mum on the matter until now. Taking to her Twitter handle, the Soorma actress said, "3 days of intense search of 3 things primarily 1. The keys of the "alleged" bungalow that I apparently own in Paris. Because summer holidays are around the corner. 2. The "alleged" receipt worth 5 crores to frame n keep for future pitching coz I've been refused that money before Pouting face. 3. My memory of 2013 raid that happened with me according to our honourable finance minister P.S- "not so sasti" anymore." The last bit happens to be a dig at Kangana Ranaut who on several occasion had addressed Taapsee as her sasti (cheap) copy. Have a dekko at her tweets here:

"Documents and computer peripherals have been recovered from various premises," officials said.
