- Shreya Mukherjee shreya.mukherjee@htlive.com n

The divorce dispute between actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his wife Aaliya aka Anjana Kishor Pandey took a new turn after there were rumours of her alleged affair with common friend Peeyush Pandey. After the latter rubbished the rumours, Aaliya joined Twitter to “put the truth” out.

“I am not into ‘any relationsh­ip’,” she wrote and added the photo was cropped to “make such ridiculous claims to divert attention”.

Talking to us, Aaliya says, “Some people only know how to cheat and malign others. Everyone knows of Nawaz’s affairs. Even Niharika Singh [who was in a relationsh­ip with him] said she was unaware of his marriage.”

The 37-year-old says the picture doing the rounds is manipulate­d, from a party. “If you check photos I tweeted, you’d know,” she adds. As for Nawaz, she shares their kids Shora (9) and Yaani (5) would get scared seeing them fight. “He doesn’t want their responsibi­lity so I’ve sought their sole custody,” she adds.
