Legendary filmmaker Kamal Amrohi's property was under scrutiny when his son Shandar Amrohi who regarded Preity Zinta as his adopted daughter said he would give her Rs 600 crore of his inheritance property. While this never happened as Preity was not adopted by him, there was a bitter fallout when Preity sought to recover Rs 2 crore from his legal heirs.Shandar, who reportedly regarded Zinta as a daughter, was locked in a prolonged property battle with his siblings, Tajdar and Rukhsar. Zinta claimed that she had financially supported Shandar during his legal struggles, paying lawyers’ bills and other expenses with the understanding that the money would eventually be repaid. After Shandar died in August 2011, she said she approached his family for repayment but received no response.
