Interestingly, Dalljiet Kaur’s estranged husband Nikhil Patel, who otherwise lives in Kenya, is in India currently.
Dalljiet Kaur has reportedly filed an FIR against her estranged husband Nikhil Patel. As reported by Times Now, the television actress filed the complaint on August 2 at Mumbai’s Agripada police station. The FIR has been filed under sections 85 and 316 (2) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. This means that Dilljiet has accused Nikhil of cruelty and criminal breach of trust.
Interestingly, Nikhil Patel, who otherwise lives in Kenya, is in India currently. He arrived in Mumbai on Friday when he was snapped at the airport with his rumoured girlfriend.
This is not the first time that Dalljiet Kaur has taken legal action against her husband. In June this year, the actress also moved to the Nairobi City court against Nikhil and received a stay order to prevent Patel from evicting her or her son from their home in Kenya.
Prior to this, Nikhil also sent a legal notice to the actress and accused her of harassment. ETimes reported that Patel said, under the Indian Penal Code, The Information Technology Act of 2000 (India), and The Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act of 2012 (India), Dalljiet Kaur’s social media posts accusing him of an extra-marital affair were wrong.
Dalljiet Kaur and Nikhil Patel tied the knot in March 2023. However, the two filed for divorce earlier this year i.e. after 10 months of their wedding. Nikhil also confirmed their separation in May when he told E-Times, “In January this year, Dalljiet decided to leave Kenya with her son Jaydon and return to India, which ultimately led to our separation. We both realized that the foundation of our blended family wasn’t as strong as we had hoped, making it hard for Dalljiet to settle in Kenya. In March 2023, we held an Indian wedding ceremony in Mumbai. Though it held cultural significance, it was not legally binding. This ceremony was intended to reassure Dalljiet’s family about her move to Kenya.”
On Friday, Dalljiet took to her Instagram handle to share her wedding pictures on the occasion of Nikhil’s birthday. She accused Nikhil of hurting her and wrote, “Right from sending my belongings to a storage house much before the date given by you through your PR articles to wiping the wall which I had painted for months with my chuda that I loved so much. And keeping a book in the foreground saying “subtle art of caring a FU**” You have impressive ways to hurt me. And I know you are not done. You will come up with more ways soon.”
