Deepshikha with her husband Kaishav Arora

Recently, there was news that Deepshikha Nagpal‘s husband Kaishav Arora had threatened to kill her. The actress took a bold step when she filed a complaint against her abusive husband. Now, about a week later, the former Bigg Boss 8 contestant has decided to open up to TOI about their persistent incompatibility and what eventually led to this unfortunate incident:

I have been through several ups and downs in life, but in the last eight months, I feel like I have been to hell and back. I went into depression. One day, it got so ugly that I told him that I didn’t want to live with him and wanted a divorce. To my shock, rather than calming me down, he asked me to clear his dues for working on a show for two years, which was a joint venture with a friend. When I told him we will do the accounting, he wasn’t ready. He is asking for 1.5 crore as his earnings. I am a self-made woman and have never taken a penny from my parents or my ex-husband. I would never hold anyone’s money back. But you can’t force or threaten me for it! Which husband asks his wife to return money that he has earned or tells his wife that she used him for five years? It felt as if it was all about money. I told him, ‘I am your wife, treat me like one.’ He has called my friends and badmouthed me, saying how I was not paying his dues. He never said let’s work things out even once. I have cried enough and now, I don’t care what people have to say.

Deepshikha is a strong woman. When asked about what impact it had on her kids she said that they told her they were adjusting with Kaishav for her, but they weren’t really happy.

We’re glad that she has now decided to move on. More power to you, girl!
