MANDANA KARIMI FILES A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASE AGAINST HER HUSBAND

Bigg Boss 9 runner-up Mandana Karimi became the talk of the town for her lavish dream wedding with her long time boyfriend Gaurav Gupta in March 2017. Barely four months after her marriage, things seem to have taken a horrible turn for the actress. According to Mid-Day reports, Mandana has filed a domestic violence case against her husband at the Andheri magistrate court on Monday, claiming for maintenance to the amount of ₹ 10 lakhs per month for basic needs. She has also demanded a compensation of ₹ 2 crore for mental trauma and agony caused, and loss of career and business.

In the petition, the Iranian model-actress also stated that Gaurav also tried to force her into changing her religion ahead of their marriage. She was allegedly harassed by her mother-in-law who forced her to give up her career post-marriage. In a statement given to Mid-Day, Mandana said "I was thrown out of my matrimonial house seven weeks ago. I made desperate attempts to reconcile with them, but my in-laws didn't allow me back. Gaurav has cut me off."

Karimi's lawyer Madhukar Dalvi said that the matter is now in court and that they would fight it as per the law while there there has been no official comment from Gaurav's side.`
