Nisha Rawal Claims Karan Mehra Was Having An Affair, Talks About The Domestic Abuse: If I Wasn’t A Mother, I Would Have Walked Out

Karan Mehra and Nisha Rawal’s marital issues have now become public knowledge after the actress filed an F.I.R against her actor husband alleging domestic abuse on Monday night. The actor was arrested by the Mumbai police following the complaint later released on bail.

Nisha opened up about her fall out with her husband and alleged that the TV actor was having an extra-martial affair which she learnt about while saying that she has been suffering abuse at the hands of her husband for some years now.

Talking to Bombay Times the actress shared, “I hadn’t spoken about it for so many years as I understand that for an actor his career and image are of utmost importance. In spite of being considerate and compassionate I have had to face something like this. This is definitely about Karan having an extra marital affair, me trying to work on the marriage, him not even taking responsibility of the child and constant abuse over the years, which I have never spoken about. I have evidence to authenticate my claim.”

Earlier on Tuesday, Karan while talking about the incident that led to his arrest on Monday had said that his wife voluntarily smashed her head in the wall and blamed him for it. The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actor also said that he was assaulted at the hands of Nisha’s brother and later a false complaint was filed against him.

Talking about her complaint of domestic abuse Nisha has said that she never filed a complaint because she loved the actor and each time an incident happened he would apologise and she would forgive him. She even said that it was hard for her to file an F.I.R against her husband but she finally decided to stand up for herself.

According to Karan not all has been well between him and Nisha and they had even discussed parting way but the alimony amount demanded by the actress was too much for him to pay. The actress however claims that the actor was having an affair which she learnt about a few months ago and confronted him. She said she also visited Karan parents in Noida to discuss the matter all the while keeping it from her family. Still willing to resolve issues and fix her marriage for a while, Nisha claims she decided to a month ago she discussed separation with Karan and told him about what alimony she would expect as she wanted to end things on an amicable note.

Asked about Karan’s allegations of her asking for an exorbitant amount of money as alimony Nisha reacted by saying, “Over the years, Karan has been the financial head of our family and has taken control of everything, right from Kavish’s and my income that comes in from advertisements, etc. He has taken a lot of bills directly into his account. He would also transfer money from my account. I don’t even know what my loan account numbers, my property papers are because you trust your partner. I invested in a relationship with complete faith. I finally told him that you are having an affair, you are not happy with me, you don’t want to live with me, but now we have a child. If I wasn’t a mother, I would have walked out. But that’s not the case. I would have still walked out if he had left anything for me from my earnings. He has sold my wedding jewellery as well. I don’t know where I felt short as a wife. I have supported him financially, given my all. Despite everything, he has been misbehaving and talking ill about my mother.”

Nisha and Karan got married in November 2012 and their son Kavish was born in 2017. The couple had dated for six years before tying the knot.
