Actor Arzoo Govitrikar has filed for divorce from her husband Siddharth Sabharwal, citing home abuse. Arzoo, the sister of Aditi Govitrikar, has appeared within the movie Baghban and the tv present Naagin 2.
Arzoo had filed a home violence grievance towards her husband in 2019, the place Arzoo stated that they’d fought over Siddharth’s alcohol consumption. She had claimed he dragged her into the toilet at 4 am and hit her badly.
She advised ETimes TV, “Enough is enough and I am not going to take this lying down anymore. I swallowed my pride; I tried, and I tried my best. But matters came to a head and I couldn’t continue with Siddharth. I had so far not spoken in the media, not even when I was hounded by calls from journalists two years ago.”
She added that she had been crushed ‘black and blue’ by him. “But I will talk today. I want to tell you that he has pulled me by my neck and tried to throw me out of the flat. He has slapped me. He has kicked me in my stomach. There were days when I was beaten up black and blue and I couldn’t come out because I didn’t want my bruises to be seen.”
Arzoo additionally alleged that he was untrue to her, and he or she confronted him about his new girlfriend. She says that she has documented the violence and infidelity via CCTV footage and his private chats. “Siddharth first raised his hand on me two years after our marriage. And after our son was born three years after we became man and wife, he simply drifted apart,” Arzoo stated, including, “He started sleeping in another room. After that, I found out that he has a Russian girlfriend; he was constantly on chats with her. I confronted him about her. I don’t know if they’re together now because he stays separately. Mind you, I have those chats and the CCTV footage of his violence and it would help me to get justice.”
Arzoo additionally accused him of hurling ‘casteist’ abuses at her, and that she began struggling ‘blackouts’. Siddharth responded to the accusations, “Let her say what she wants. I don’t want to say anything.”
