Karisma Kapoor Files Dowry Harassment Case Against Sanjay Kapur

February 27, 2016

Mumbai, Feb 27: Even as their ugly divorce case pans out in open court, actor Karisma Kapoor has now filed a dowry harassment case against Sunjay Kapur and his mother, Rani, who holds the family finances.

The battle between Karisma Kapoor and her estranged husband, Sunjay Kapur took an uglier turn this week, as the actress registered a case of dowry harassment against him and her mother-in-law Rani Surinder Kapur.

While the couple are currently fighting a messy case for divorce and custody of their two kids, Karisma approached the Khar police earlier this week with a complaint of mental harassment by her husband and mother-in-law.

Following the application, the cops called Karisma a couple of days ago to record her statement and registered an FIR in the matter.

Karisma alleged that she had been mentally harassed by the Kapurs over a period of time.

Based on her statement, the Khar police registered an FIR (no 98/16) under the dowry section - 498 (A): husband or relative of husband of a woman subjecting her to cruelty - and Section 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code.

The estranged couple's divorce case is currently pending before the Bandra family court. They had initially filed for divorce on the grounds of mutual consent, but Karisma withdrew her consent stating Sunjay had failed to meet certain financial commitments established in the consent terms.

They then filed fresh divorce applications, and the case steadily became acrimonious. Sunjay made strong allegations that Karisma had failed as a wife, mother and daughter-in-law, and that she had married him for money. He also claimed that the actress was using access to the children to demand money, and added that she had denied his ailing father access to them as well.

Karisma's lawyers sought time to respond to this and are likely to file the reply during the next hearing on March 3. In the last hearing, Karisma opposed her husband's application for the interim custody of their kids. Arguments for custody will also be heard on Thursday, and Sunjay's lawyer might file another reply in the same matter. On another note, Sunjay has also filed an application at the Supreme Court to transfer the case to Delhi, on the grounds that there is a threat to his life from underworld don Ravi Pujari.

Chennai, Mar 12: Superstar Rajinikanth on Thursday clarified that he never aspired to become the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and said his plans for politics include different heads for his prospective party and a possible government headed by it.

In his first official press conference since December 31, 2017, when he announced to take the political plunge, the veteran star also said he planned to appoint as CM, an educated youth who was compassionate and had self-respect.

With a two-leadership system for party and the government, the former would act as an "opposition" to highlight issues and would not even hesitate to "remove", apparently the head of the government, if it fails to perform, he said.

His prospective party would focus on including a substantial amount of youngsters in the age group of below 45 years while the rest would comprise retired judges and IAS and IPS officials among others.

"I myself would reach out to them and invite them," to join him, the 69-year-old actor said.

Contrary to expectations, he however, did not make a concrete statement on floating his party but called for an "uprising" by youth, after which he would make his formal political entry.

New Delhi, April 6: Acknowledging on being scared and talking of not seeing his family for three weeks, actor Salman Khan along with nephew Nirvaan on Sunday shared their lockdown experience in a video message.

The 54-year-old star, without disclosing where the actor actually is, shared a video message on Twitter along with his brother Sohail Khan's son, Nirvaan.

Salman began the one-minute and 26-seconds long video, by saying: "We came here for a few days and now we're stuck and scared"

The 'Bharat' actor then introduced Nirvaan and asked him "How long has it been since you saw your father?", to which Nirvaan replied, "It must have been three weeks."

"I have not seen my father for three weeks. We are here and he is alone at home," Salman added.

The 'Sultan' actor then asks the boy: "You remember the film dialogue, 'the one who got scared, died.' It does not apply here in this situation. We are scared and bravely we admit that we are scared. Please don't be brave in this situation."

Nirvaan also further requested everybody to stay safe and maintain social-distance.

"I think it's better for everyone to stay home, avoid contact and I think the longer we stay indoors the faster this ends," he added.

The 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' star concluded the video by saying: "The one who got afraid saved himself and lives of others around him. Moral of the story, 'We're all scared'."

Urging people to take the government's advisory of self-isolation seriously amid the rising cases of coronavirus in the country, the megastar had earlier shared a video message for fans.
