From a Delhi jail, Sukesh Chandrasekhar claims he gifted a ₹30-crore helicopter to Jacqueline Fernandez on Valentine’s Day- but with no confirmation and silence from the actor, the sensational claim raises more questions than answers.
Sukesh described the aircraft as a specially designed model from the Airbus H‑Series
New Delhi: In a dramatic development linked to the ongoing money-laundering case, jailed conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar has claimed that he gifted Bollywood actor Jacqueline Fernandez a customised helicopter worth nearly ₹30 crore on Valentine’s Day.
The assertion was made through a handwritten letter sent from Mandoli Jail, where he is currently lodged in connection with an alleged ₹200-crore financial fraud case.
In his note, Sukesh described the aircraft as a specially designed model from the Airbus H‑Series, claiming it features personalised interiors marked with the actor’s initials. He also suggested that the helicopter complements other luxury assets—such as a yacht and a private jet—that he alleges to have arranged for her in the past.

The Airbus H-Series includes multiple variants with sharply varying prices. Entry-level single-engine helicopters in the range are valued at a few million dollars, while larger twin-engine or heavy-lift versions can cost several times more depending on configuration, technology, and customisation.
Beyond the extravagant claim, the letter carried an emotional message in which Sukesh expressed longing and separation, portraying Valentine’s Day as incomplete without the actor’s presence. He used affectionate language similar to earlier letters he has reportedly sent on occasions such as New Year’s and other personal milestones, repeatedly asserting a close bond.
This pattern of prison correspondence has drawn significant public and media attention, particularly because the claims remain one-sided and unverified.
Jacqueline Fernandez has consistently maintained that she is innocent and not connected to the alleged financial wrongdoing under investigation. Her legal team has previously clarified that she has no role in the purported fraud or related transactions.

So far, the actor has not issued any fresh public response to Sukesh’s latest Valentine’s Day message or the helicopter claim. With investigations still underway, the episode adds another sensational twist to a case that continues to generate headlines across the country.
Authorities have not confirmed any evidence supporting the alleged gift, leaving the matter confined to Sukesh’s personal assertions for now.
