Nirav has tainted his own brand name by getting involved in a fraudulent case.
Nirav Modi, 48, is a celebrated and renowned celebrity jeweller. But this time the designer is not in the news for his elegant jewellery but of his wrong doings. Nirav has tainted his own brand name by getting involved in a fraudulent case. Recently, in one of the biggest fraud cases to hit the Indian banking, Punjab National Bank (PNB) reported CBI for being a target of embezzlement worth Rs 11,300 crore in its Mumbai branch. PNB named three diamond firms that benefited from the fraud, namely – Diamonds R Us, Solar Exports and Stellar Diamonds. Nirav Modi and his family members are partners in the forenamed companies. However, not so long ago, Nirav Modi has been seen chumming around with biggest celebrities not only from Bollywood but also his brand is a reputed name among the Hollywood A-listers. Many of them have been sporting his jewellery at various industry events. Late last year, Nirav Modi appointed Priyanka Chopra as the global brand ambassador.
