TV actress Chahat Khanna made most of the news for her pregnancy shoot which she used to share on social media. Recently, the actress accused her estranged husband Farhan Mirza of sexual and physical abuse. Chahat and her husband have been married since 2013. The couple filed for a divorce a month ago. While speaking to a leading daily, the former Bade Achhe Lagte Hain actress narrated her alleged ordeal which she faced at the hands of her husband.
While talking to Times of India, Chahat Khanna spoke about her turbulent marriage and how her husband Farhan Mirza used to sexually and mentally abuse her.
Narrating her ordeal, she told once she was having pain in her breasts. She pleaded her husband to take her to a doctor, to which he didn’t comply. She added, “Without showing any concern for my health woes, he told me that he wanted to have sex with me and made sure that he did. That’s when I felt that he wouldn’t care even if I died.”
“It was not just sexual abuse, I went through financial and mental abuse, too. The atmosphere in the house was driving me crazy. He would accuse me of prostitution and having an affair with a co-actor. He would make surprise visits on the set of my show (Qubool Hai) and create a fuss when I had to hug or even hold hands with my co-actor on screen. Once, he threw a fit after I received an invite for the same co-actor’s housewarming party; he concluded that I was dating him,” she continued.
Chahat Khanna also claimed that her husband accused her of infidelity and even doubted that their daughters were his. He also allegedly manhandled her during the fights. She shares how she was malnourished during her second pregnancy and was asked to leave the house four days after her delivery.
According to her, Farhan Mirza often threatened to commit suicide, because of which Chahat never dared to walk out of their marriage.
