The ongoing dispute within the Cine and TV Artistes Association (CINTAA) involves allegations by Upasana Singh against Poonam Dhillon and Padmini Kolhapure.

She also alleges that Poonam Dhillon issued her a show-cause notice after she publicly supported actor Ranveer Singh during an industry controversy. The dispute centers on management committee legitimacy and financial control within CINTAA.
