Actor Rishi Kaushik posted a cryptic post and then a video last Thursday addressing his audience, hinting at a toxic marriage. Ever since, without naming anyone, he has been posting cryptic messages on his social media. This sparked speculation about his relationship with his wife, Debjani Chakraborty.

On Monday, his wife, Debjani, addressed the situation and released a statement that said: “Over the last few days, people have been constantly asking me about certain posts on social media made by my husband. I find these posts extremely derogatory and they have led to my humiliation and embarrassment.”

She continues, “I want to state the allegations made against me in the posts are completely false, mala fide, unwarranted, and arbitrary. They have been made with the deliberate aim to harm my reputation and to serve their subservient mal interests. Any law-abiding gentleman/citizen will approach the Court for redressal of grievance, if any, instead of seeking public opinion on our personal lives.

In continuation of his cruelty and torture upon me, he has committed such an offence taking undue advantage of my patience and tolerance.

This is his last resort to pressurise me to act as per his terms and fulfil his wrongful demands. I have sought legal help with this and will take the necessary steps very soon. I am not in a position to speak more about it yet. I’m in discussions with my lawyers and I shall forthwith take all steps following the due process of law.”

When we contacted Rishi Kaushik, he refused to talk. Debjni’s phone was unreachable. The actor was last seen in Zee5's web series Paashbalish, which also features Ishaa Saha, Saurav Das, Suhotra Mukhopadhyay, and others.
