Nawazuddin Siddiqui's lawyer Nadeem Zafar Zaidi talked about the ongoing dispute between the actor and his wife, Aaliya at a press meet in Delhi. He was joined by the National President of Rashtriya Hindu-Muslim Ekta Manch, Rihan Khan.
As per India Today report, in a statement to media, the lawyer said, ‘In 2001, Aaliya aka Anjali Kumari, an 8th class fail, married Vinay Bhargav. Then she came to Mumbai and became Anjana Pandey, then Anjana Anand in 2010. Then she became Zainab and converted to Islam. After that she married Nawazuddin and divorced him in 2011 with mutual consent. But when Nawazuddin’s career skyrocketed, she again came into his life as Aaliya. In 2020 she sent him a divorce notice which makes no sense as the two had already separated.’
The lawyer also accused Aaliya of faking her date of birth and said she got married to Vinay Bhargav as she ‘wanted to become big.’ He said the two are still married.
Earlier, Aaliya’s lawyer had accused Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his family of harassment. He said that they did everything possible to remove his client Mrs Aaliya Siddiqui from the house.
There are also reports that the actor has moved out of his house and is currently staying at a hotel.
For the unversed, Nawazuddin’s mother had filed a complaint against Aaliya owing to property dispute.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Aaliya are parents to two kids--Shora and Yaani. They got married in 2011.
