MUMBAI: For the past few months, Dalljiet Kaur's problematic marriage to her estranged husband, Nikhil Patel, has made headlines. The actor frequently shared mysterious messages on social media, and her divorce struggle attracted interest from users. While Dallijiet just sent a lengthy note about her anguish and how Nikhil thought of several methods to harm her, Nikhil has now revealed his side of the story.

Nikhil sent out an official statement that read, “Dalljet and I met in Dubai in 2022, and then had our Hindu ceremony in March of 2023 in Mumbai, India. Right after the ceremony, we moved to Nairobi, Kenya where I work and reside as a British Expat. We lived in Kenya together as a family until January 2024 when she returned to India with Jaydon. Dalljiet was very insistent on moving to Kenya and starting a new life there with my daughter and I. She understood the fact that I was still not legally divorced from my first marriage. In fact my legal counsel at the time, sent Dalljiet's parents a letter clearly stating this fact, to which they gave their blessing to the ceremony.”
“This is why the Hindu ceremony was held in a banquet hall rather than a Gurdwara or a Mandir, and was purely a non-legally binding celebration for our respective family & friends, and for the sole purpose of Dalljiet being able to move to Kenya. My final divorce did not arrive until January of this year, by which time Dalljiet had already left Kenya for good. This is something that Dalljiet is deliberately omitting in her chosen narrative; she was in no way misled about my status as a still married man, and the fact that our celebration in India was not in any way meant to be, nor was it a "legal" marriage ceremony.”
He further wrote, “For Dalljiet to pretend that we entered a legal union is deliberately deceptive and meant solely for purposes of supporting her victim self-portrayal. However, all the legal evidence, which is readily available, shows that this was purely a celebration of two cultures and religions coming together. I will admit that at the time, we both wanted to later legalise our relationship, once my divorce came through. After Dalljiet moved to Kenya, I devoted significant energy, time, and resources to assist her in establishing her business and profile. I introduced her to key media executives and provided her with a complete studio setup for her YouTube channel and podcasts. She made consistent efforts to secure work in India by writing scripts and attempting to market her short films, though they did not achieve the success she hoped. As a supportive partner, I remained committed to backing her projects.”
He added, “As I do take responsibility for my own actions in this scenario, it is important that Dalljiet recognise that labelling me a "cheater" and claiming that I had "extra marital affairs" is hypocritical given her level of comfort in moving to Kenya to live with me knowing full well that I was still legally married. In the past eight months since Dalljiet and Jaydon left Kenya, I have found myself subjected to intense scrutiny on social media.”
Nikhil revealed that his older daughter has been affected by this and wants nothing to do with Dalljiet saying, “Dalljiet's continued refusal to respect my daughter's wishes is a direct contradiction to her proclamations that she is doing what she is doing for "all women". My teenage daughter is a young woman and Dalljiet's actions continue to place her under immense mental, social and psychological pressure. This is heartbreaking as I feel responsible for this continuous, non-consensual cyber bullying of an innocent young person. I am urging Dalljiet to leave my children alone.”
Nikhil concluded saying, “On August 2nd, my birthday, Dalljiet filed an FIR against me, repeating the same tactic she used against her ex-husband. Interestingly, in the FIR, she falsely claims that I am an NRI, despite the fact that I have never been a Non-Resident Indian. I am, and always have been, a British citizen.”
