Pawan Singh
Pawan Singh is among the popular celebs in the Bhojpuri industry, who entered politics in 2024. He was recently seen in reality show Rise and Fall where he opened up about his personal life. However, he gained attention after his wife Jyoti Singh claimed that cops denied her entry at his Lucknow residence. She even levelled serious accusation against him. Now, the actor has issued a clarification.
After a huge drama earlier at his residence, where his wife, Jyoti Singh, went live on Instagram, and accused the actor-politician of harassment and adultery, he has now come out to clarify. He took to his Instagram on Monday, and shared a long note in Hindi where he spoke about the allegations levelled by his wife. He counter accused his wife of using him for political mileage.
Pawan wrote, "I know only one thing in my life that the public is God for me. Will I hurt the sentiments of all of you, because of whom I have reached this far? Jyoti Singh ji. Is it not true that when you came to my society yesterday morning, I respectfully invited you to my house and we talked for about 1:30 hours?
He further mentioned that his wife was trying to pressurise him to let her contest the election, a task which is out of his authority. He went on, "Your only insistence is to get me to contest the elections somehow, which is beyond my capacity".
"A misconception was spread in the society that I called the police, whereas the truth is that the police were present there since morning so that whatever happens, happens in their presence, and nothing untoward happens anywhere by the people who came with you or by anyone else", he added.
Pawan recently exited show Rise and Fall mid-way stating he was never a full-time contestant. Actor Aahana Kumra has spoken out about receiving death and rape threats from fans of Bhojpuri actor and fellow contestant, Pawan Singh. Although both actors had settled their differences on stage, Kumra stated that the harassment continued relentlessly online.
