In an interview recently, Raja Chaudhary, the first husband of television actress Shweta Tiwari, spoke on allegations of her divorce and physical abuse on her. In a conversation with Hindi Rush, he accused Shweta of being ‘illiterate’ and claimed that she had planned the future of her daughter Palak Tiwari.
Chaudhary said that if he got a chance, he would ask Shweta why he did not resolve his issues instead of involving the police. He also suggested that Shweta’s colleagues may have played a role in ending her marriage.
Asked if Shweta was the main earning of the family and she was taking care of the child at home, Chaudhary said, ‘You can say so. She was earning more, I was earning less. I was also working, but does it make any difference? A man earns his whole life – the day a woman earns, he feels that it is his money. Man never says this is my money. Woman’s money has become a woman’s money, a strange drama. Then there will be talks that they will go shoulder to shoulder, will do Barabari, where are you worthy of Barabari?
He further claimed that since Shweta did not study herself, she had planned the future of Palak. He said, ‘You have not seen money, since childhood you have lived a life of poverty, you have been living in rice, suddenly when the money comes, the mind is bad for people. You do not have education, you are illiterate, you are false. If the world is living, then when you start working, the person does not remain the same, she became a businesswoman.
