In
a
shocking
turn
of
events,
actor
Sarathkumar
and
his
actress-wife
Radhikaa
Sarthkumar
have
reportedly
been
sentenced
to
one
year
of
jail
imprisonment
by
a
Chennai
special
court,
in
connection
with
a
cheque
bounce
case.
Notably,
in
2019,
a
bailable
warrant
was
issued
against
the
duo
and
Listin
Stephen,
their
partner
in
Magic
Frames
Company.
In
the
same
year,
Madras
High
Court
had
declined
the
plea
of
the
duo
to
quash
any
criminal
proceedings
against
them.
Allegedly,
a
leading
money
lending
firm
Radiance
Media
Private
Limited
had
lent
a
major
chunk
of
money
to
Magic
Frames
Company
in
2014.
Though
the
actor
issued
cheques
in
order
to
repay
the
money,
they
bounced
in
the
year
2017.
Reportedly,
Sarathkumar's
company
borrowed
Rs
1.50
crore
and
later
an
extra
amount
of
Rs
50
lakh.
A
few
media
reports
suggest
that
the
couple
has
now
moved
a
special
court
with
plea
to
quash
the
sentence.
An
official
confirmation
regarding
the
case
is
yet
to
be
made
by
the
actor
couple.
