For the unversed, Neeru had filed a complaint against Armaan in 2018, alleging that he had abused her after they had a heated discussion over their business. The actor was arrested in Lonavala and later released on bail.
Speaking of the same, Neeru told an entertainment portal that the case has been going on since 2018, and she understands that the legal proceedings take a while. She is glad the truth prevailed and that the verdict is in her favour. The court ordered Armaan to clear the remaining payment by July 18 or he would be jailed.
She further added that since she is a British citizen and was shuttling between London and India, it wasn’t practical for her to keep coming back for the case. This was why she withdrew it, along with the fact that Armaan’s family pleaded with her to forgive their son.
Randhawa continued revealing that she even receiver an apology letter from him, which was recorded in the High Court. The amount that was agreed upon was Rs. 1 crore. The post-dated cheques amounting to Rs. 50 lakhs given to her, bounced, so she had no choice but to seek legal recourse.
According to a report by PTI, Neeru and Armaan had been in a relationship for three years. The former couple stayed together in a flat in Mumbai. During an argument over money, Armaan allegedly pushed her, causing her to fall down the stairs.
