In his defence, Sachiin Joshi shared another picture and wrote, "Well, I recently learnt on many such true con stories and Raj Kundra's claims are all false, baseless. Best of luck to him with it." "Businesses are done with equals & honest people & not with people with fraudulent nature @TheRajKundra," he further added.
To which, Raj Kundra replied, "Class you are Sachin!?! Stoop to such low levels for publicity? How come your partners that you introduced are still involved and continue to participate if IFP is rigged? Talking utter nonsense! Payment delay tactics!!"

Meanwhile, Raj Kundra told Mumbai Mirror that Sachiin Joshi, "Yes, we have gone legal on Sachiin Joshi. He has been terminated from the Match Indian Poker League for defaulting on payments. His cheque for Rs 40 lakh has bounced. His team was Goa King's; he took full publicity and after the event avoided my calls and messages. I thought he was a friend. I am completely disappointed."
Raj Kundra announced India Poker League last September. He also signed contracts with actor Harman Baweja and a few other companies. He was removed from the Indian Premiere League by the Supreme Court for alleged irregularities in 2013. Raj Kundra and Shilpa Shetty co-owned Rajasthan Royals.
Sachiin Joshi is married to actress Urvashi Sharma. He is also an entrepreneur and the owner of JMJ group of Industries.
