Raja Chaudhary, the former husband of actress Shweta Tiwari, has recently made startling allegations about her past relationships. In a recent interview, Chaudhary claimed that Tiwari had an extramarital affair with her "Kasautii Zindagii Kay" co-star, Cezanne Khan.
Chaudhary, who was married to Tiwari from 1998 to 2007, stated that he suspected Tiwari's infidelity during their marriage. He recounted an incident where he visited Tiwari on the set of "Kasautii Zindagii Kay" and saw her arriving in Cezanne Khan's car. According to Chaudhary, this raised questions in his mind about the nature of their relationship. He said, "Car Cezanne ke driver ke saath aa rahi thi, aur Shweta usme baithi thi. Joh subhe se shooting chal rahi hai, abhi tak toh set par bhi nahi poche hai," hinting at suspected infidelity.
Despite his suspicions, Chaudhary admitted that he never directly confronted Tiwari about the alleged affair. He claimed that whenever he tried to raise concerns, Tiwari would deflect the blame by accusing him of alcoholism. Chaudhary stated that he endured the taunts and remained silent for the sake of their daughter, Palak. He said he chose to endure emotional turmoil rather than disrupt his daughter's upbringing.
Notably, Shweta and Cezanne were a popular on-screen couple during their time on "Kasautii Zindagii Kay," where they played the roles of Prerna and Anurag Basu, respectively. However, reports suggest that their off-screen relationship was not as amicable. Cezanne himself has admitted to having issues with Shweta during the show's run from 2001 to 2008. In an interview, Cezanne confessed that there was a time when he and Shweta were not on speaking terms.
Adding to the controversy, Chaudhary also made claims about Tiwari's second marriage to Abhinav Kohli. He alleged that Tiwari initially introduced Kohli as her "brother" before their relationship turned romantic. Chaudhary further stated that Kohli approached him in tears after his marriage with Tiwari fell apart. He accused Tiwari of alienating both him and Kohli from their children, suggesting a pattern of controlling behavior. Raja said, “Uske bhai the. Kehti toh sabko bhai thi. Are Kohli (Abhinav Kohli) ko bhi bhai bhai kehti thi. 'Bhai hai mera, bhai ka dost hai'. Badme woh lover bann gaya, husband bann gaya."
Tiwari's personal life has been under scrutiny, with both her marriages ending in divorce. She divorced Chaudhary in 2012, citing domestic violence and alcoholism. Her second marriage to Abhinav Kohli also ended in 2019 after she filed a domestic violence complaint against him. Tiwari has two children: Palak, from her marriage with Raja Chaudhary, and Reyansh, from her marriage with Abhinav Kohli. Both children are currently being raised by Tiwari.
These recent allegations from Raja Chaudhary have once again brought Shweta Tiwari's personal life into the spotlight. While the truth behind these claims remains to be seen, they add another layer to the complex and often turbulent narrative of her relationships.
