1B-Town’s link to Mahadev app
The question many are now asking is how are B-Town celebs are connected to the app?
According to officials, Ranbir Kapoor has been asked to provide information on the knowledge he had on the source of the money he was being provided with to promote the app.
ED officials have said that Ranbir endorsed the betting platform and was paid for it with the money reportedly coming from the collections through the scam.
According to reports, the Brahmastra actor is said to be among the highest-paid celebs who were paid by the app promoters. Even social media ads and advertisements for the Mahadev app have featured him.
On Thursday (6 October), the officials widened their probe and summoned Kapil Sharma and Huma Qureshi and Hina Khan on different dates to provide information about the mode and flow of payment allegedly done to them by the promoters of the app.
Shraddha Kapoor, Ranbir’s co-actor in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, has also been asked to appear before the ED officials after she allegedly promoted the app. Officials believe that she too was paid through benami and hawala channels.
Besides these celebs, the ED has their eyes on another 14 of them as well as 100 other influencers who attended Chandrakar’s wedding in February.
The ED has clarified that the celebs are not being summoned in the case as accused but to understand how the app functioned and earned crores of rupees and funnelled money through illegal means.
The authorities have conducted searches at 39 locations so far across Raipur, Bhopal, Mumbai, and Kolkata and seized illegal assets worth Rs 417 crore.
It is left to be seen what the celebrities reveal about the app to the officials, but what has become clear through the probe so far is that the scale of the operation is across India. As one ED source told The Print, “The scale is huge. We are still not able to identify how much money has been made and laundered till now.”

Edit: Thanks a lot, Jack...just saw it 
Could read another article explaining the scam (without celebrities named) :
from another article:
"Mahadev Online Book Betting app is an umbrella syndicate arranging online platforms for enabling illegal betting websites to enrol new users, create user IDs and the laundering of money through a layered web of benami bank accounts." (Siasat.com)
