Khan claimed that she had paid the amount as 'token money' to launch her new album and the deal was signed in Ghaziabad itself.

Police further stated that Khan could not manage to arrange the pending amount for the production (of music album), as she was unable to secure big projects.

"Khan registered a complaint against the director in Ghaziabad city Kotwali, after the deal was cancelled and the advance money was refused to her. Appropriate action will be taken after the investigation," maintained the police officals.
