Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s wife Aaliya wants sole custody of their kids; says, “I have raised them”

Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s wife Aaliya has sent a legal notice to the actor demanding a divorce and maintenance from him. The news was confirmed by Aaliya’s lawyer to Zee News but there was no clarity for the reason as to why the two parted ways. Recently, Aaliya said she wants sole custody of their kids and that she has lost all the self-respect.

In an interview with Times of India, Nawaz’s wife Aaliya said, “There are a lot of things that I don’t want to bring in the public domain as of now, but our problems started soon after we got married over a decade ago. Two months of lockdown gave me a lot of time to introspect. Self-respect is extremely important in a marriage. Woh meri khatam ho chuki thi (that didn’t exist for me), I didn’t have that. I was made to feel like a nobody, I always felt alone. His brother Shamas was also an issue. I have gone back to my original name, Anjana Kishor Pandey. I don’t want to be reminded that I am using someone’s identity for my benefit.” 

She continued, “I want to go with the flow. I haven’t thought much about the future, but I don’t want this marriage anymore. There are no chances of reconciliation.” Speaking about wanting sole custody of her kids, she said, “I have raised them and I want their custody.”
