Former IPl chief lalit Modi has said BJP MP Varun Gandhi met him in london "a few years ago" and offered to "settle everything" with Congress president Sonia Gandhi.

"@varungandhi80 came to see me at my house a few years ago and said he can settle everything in @INCIndia with his aunt," Modi tweeted late Tuesday.

"He wanted me to meet her sister from Italy. I heard him next I heard from our common friend who introduced us that auntie wants 60 million dollars. Told them whaaaat are u nuts go HKG a kite. Can he deny that. I hope he does," Modi posted on Twitter.

In another tweet, he clarified: "The auntie he refers to is #soniagandhi. The sister is #soniagandhi sister - just for clarity."

"Please clarify @varungandhi80 did u or did u not come to my house in london. Whilst staying at the Ritz hotel in london a few years ago," said another of his tweets.
