Surbhi Tiwari, who tied the knot with Delhi-based pilot and businessman, Praveen Kumar Sinha, in 2019, is going through some rough times in her personal life and is filing for divorce. In an interview with a leading daily, the actress said, “Soon after I married, I realised Praveen and I weren’t compatible. Praveen had agreed to move to Mumbai to live with me but later refused to relocate. I wanted to continue acting but I couldn’t take up daily soaps, as I was flying with him. As a result, I was financially dependent on him and struggled for money. Besides, I wanted to start a family soon but he wasn’t keen.”
The Shagun actress, who was last seen in Ek Rishta Saajhedari Ka, has accused Praveen and his family of violence and intimidation. An FIR against them was registered at Versova police station on June 20. She had also filed a case of domestic violence in the Metropolitan Magistrates Court, Andheri, on May 12. Surbhi says, “I have filed a complaint against Praveen, his mother and his sisters-in-law for domestic violence and intimidating me. Also, I haven’t got my stree dhan back, which is my right. Along with the jewellery given to them and me at the wedding, I also took silverware with me. I haven’t got anything back. If I had that, I wouldn’t have to sell my gold ornaments for survival and medical expenses.”
Surbhi plans to file for divorce soon. She says, “I feel cheated about a lot of things. Even after suffering so much, I had planned to part ways amicably. However, Praveen told me that he would not give me a divorce and that I could move the court for it. I have now decided to take the legal route against them. I will soon file for divorce.”
