Amidst legal turmoil, former Bigg Boss OTT 2 contestant Aaliya Siddiqui faces the heat of a non-bailable warrant (NBW) issued by the Mumbai civil court due to her absence from proceedings related to an alleged financial fraud. The Andheri court, however, temporarily stayed the execution of the NBW until the next court appearance.
The legal entanglement stems from Aaliya’s involvement in producing the movie Holy Cow alongside co-producer Manju M Garhwal. Allegedly borrowing money from Manju’s parents in 2019 sparked a financial dispute that has now snowballed into a legal quagmire. Despite repeated attempts, Aaliya has refused to settle the outstanding 31 lakhs, prompting the NBW issuance.
Insight from Manju M Garhwal:
Manju M Garhwal sheds light on the ordeal, tracing it back to 2019 during the movie’s production phase. Despite a longstanding friendship since 2005, tensions escalated over financial woes. Aaliya’s solicitation for financial assistance from Manju’s parents soured relations, leading to attempts to oust Manju from the project. The situation escalated further with Aaliya issuing a post-dated cheque (PDC), which later bounced.
Legal Fallout and FWICE Complaint:
With the unpaid sum totalling 31 lakhs and 68 thousand, Aaliya has reportedly evaded communication attempts from Manju, even skipping court appearances. Notably, even Nawazuddin Siddiqui has maintained silence on the matter. In response, Manju escalated the issue by filing a complaint with the Federation of Western Indian Cine Employees (FWICE).
Personal Life and Romances:
Amidst legal woes, Aaliya’s romantic involvement with an Italian partner remains a topic of discussion. Though she keeps her beau’s identity under wraps, she shares glimpses of her newfound happiness, embracing this new chapter in her life openly.
Despite the legal hurdles, Aaliya Siddiqui navigates through life’s complexities, showcasing resilience amidst the storm while balancing personal and legal affairs.
