Bollywood actor Anupam Kher has responded humorously to the news of counterfeit currency featuring his face, which was recently seized in Gujarat. Ahmedabad Police recovered fake notes worth Rs 1.60 crore, and videos circulating on social media showed Rs 500 notes with Anupam's face in place of Mahatma Gandhi's, along with “Resole Bank of India” instead of the usual “Reserve Bank of India.”

According to The Indian Express, the counterfeit notes came to light after Mehul Thakkar, the owner of a bullion firm, was duped out of Rs 1.60 crore. Thakkar had sent an employee to deliver 2100 grams of gold to two buyers in Navrangpura, Ahmedabad. In return, the employee received a plastic cover supposedly containing Rs 1.3 crore. The buyers then left, claiming they were fetching the remaining Rs 30 lakh, but never returned. It was only later that the fake notes were discovered, leading to a police investigation.
