A week after mid-day published explosive excerpts from Nawazuddin Siddiqui's tell-all biography, An Ordinary Life: A Memoir, about his affair with Niharika Singh, the actor finds himself in hot water.


Niharika Singh and Nawazuddin Siddiqui

While Singh had admitted to mid-day (in the issue dated October 25) that she was considering legal action against Siddiqui for sharing intimate details about their relationship without her consent, Delhi advocate Gautam Gulati has registered a complaint at National Commission for Women (NCW) against him for outraging the modesty of his Miss Lovely co-star.

Gulati says, "I don't know Niharika Singh personally nor have I spoken to her. I have lodged a complaint with NCW with a request to give direction for the registration of FIR under sections 376 (rape), 497 (adultery) and 509 (insulting the modesty of a woman) of IPC. He was evidently married when he was having an affair with Niharika and kept her in the dark about it."

Following the furore that Siddiqui's racy confessions had created, a livid Singh had revealed to the media that she had found out later that "he had a wife in the village whom he never spoke about."

In his complaint, Gulati writes, "The actor has published it without having second thoughts about how this kind of act can ruin the married life of the victim. For minting money and garnering free publicity for his book, the actor has bargained the modesty of a woman." Sources inform that the NCW is likely to summon Singh for an inquiry next week. The book will be launched on November 2.
