SEPARATING FACTS FROM FALSEHOOD: The True Story of Steve Banerjee, the Founder of Chippendales

 sponsored post

In life, almost every entrepreneur aspires to be successful in business, regardless of whether one has the requisite skill to succeed in a chosen business venture. Others who either could not succeed in theirs, often become envious of others and sometimes will result to blackmail, just to extort, intimidate and take over other people's wealth.

How else can we describe a recent YouTube video, said to have been promoted by an influencer, sponsored by one criminal-minded Bruce Nahim, a self-acclaimed partner of Chippendales and a leader of a gang who is currently doing everything they could, to reap from where they did not sow. The video is originally meant to tarnish the image of one Steve Banerjee, the Founder of the highly successful Chippendales business empire.

While the populace remained baffled at the concocted revelations in the video that have been revealed to be mainly falsehoods that exist only in the imagination of the sponsors, it would interest you to know that Steve Banerjee never had a business partner with the name "Nick Denoia" as revealed by the Chippendales corporation document, nor was he ever involved in his murder according to court documents.

A preliminary investigation shows that this so-called YouTube influencer, heavily paid to spread these lies knows nothing about the company and never bothered to investigate it, either; hence has relied on a narrated story that was not backed with any form of legal evidence.

Those who know about the company have noted that the only truth about the video is that Steve Benerjee is from India, which is already in the public domain. Every other thing appears funny and misleading. Steve, you may want to know was a humble and hardworking businessman from an upper-middle-class family, who wanted average Americans to benefit from his creativity, create an impact in Indian pop culture and be part of the American dream; contrary to a malicious claim in the video of him coming as a low level but ambitious nightclub janitor.

While some vested stakeholders and family members are considering a lawsuit against this mischievous youtube young lady and her cohorts in near future, the public is advised to disregard this poorly structured blackmail to portray Steve as the killer. Remarkably also, one of the documents sighted shows that Steve before his death had reported to the FBI about the New York mafia, the Gambitos that wanted to extort him and was then threatening to kill him.

This is conflicting with what was said of him being ruthless and racketeering: he should not have been the one calling for FBI assistance. This has also given credence to those suggesting that Steve may have been murdered following his reported suicidal death after he was accused of murder and later found dead, hung in a prison cell.

With these false and gory tales about this honest businessman, a lot of people are now asking a question about the real cause of his death. Was he silenced for knowing about too many powerful men’s secret affairs with under-aged girls? Or did he have too much information on married men’s fetishes with his male dancers? There's something fishy about those who are going beyond his death to continue to destroy his reputation.  

A quick search about the name Bruce Nahin, we learned that a superior court judge had sentenced attorney Bruce Nahin to 10 years in state prison for embezzling millions of dollars from his clients, including two elderly women, according to the Los Angeles Times of Jan. 30, 2004, on the following headline “Lawyer Gets 10 Years for Embezzling Millions”

It was reported that Judge Norm Shapiro also ordered Nahin to pay $1.6 million in compensation to 11 victims. The case the report said was made public after Nahin’s former clients came forward. “Nahin, an Agua Dulce lawyer who used some of the stolen money to bankroll his horse ranch, had pleaded no contest to embezzlement charges,” it stated. “I know a lot of people are going to sleep better knowing he’s in prison,” the Deputy Dist. Atty. Ed Miller had said.

While we are still searching and analyzing the possible motive of this Youtube video production, from the point of portraying Steve as over-ambitious for money to the death of his previous partner. Also,  other ugly painted stories like open sex in club, racial discrimination,  death threats, New York tours agreement, the killing of “non-existing partner”  Nick  Denoia, the Blackpool incident, the arrest and suicide of Steve, we stumbled on some facts which gave a little insight on what may have transpired.

We spoke with Steve’s eldest son, Jesse Benerjee, who was only a teenager during the height of this explosion but had watched his father build Chippendales, piece by piece. He was rather shocked that those who may have murdered his father with a fake suicide frame-up are still bent on destroying his reputation even after many years.

Jesse wondered why the nightclub in New York sued his father. If it was Nick who did the said lease agreement with his father, adding that in law only the parties involved in a contract can sue. And if Nick Denoia’s family had suspected Steve as the killer, would they have still sold the rights back to him?

We learned an intriguing side of the story about how some highly influential perpetrators will not want the public to know about how the Chippendales Empire just happened to fall into the hands of an FBI agent, and all the powerbrokers: lawyers, Casino owners, and the mob, that are now controlling it.

Jesse is unhappy as he watched strangers over the years, profit from his dad’s vision. He recalled how Irene, his stepmother, had lied to him about the role he would play in the company after his father’s death. A promise he said, was used to steal his inheritance and was thereafter threatened by Irene's brother-in-law, an FBI agent when he started asking questions about his father’s fortune. According to Jesse, he was specifically told that he wouldn’t be receiving anything from the company.

Many stories have been told about Chippendales, all of which may have emanated from these powerful perpetrators that have stolen the empire and have cleverly created very believable stories, while also silencing people with intimidation, threats, and together with a corrupt justice system that seems to have favored them.
