Wanted Wife To Be Nora Fatehi, Hubby Denied Her Food, Killed Foetus

A woman in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad has alleged that her husband subjected her to physical and mental torture in an attempt to make her look like Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi.

Shanu alias Shanvi said that her husband Shivam Ujjwal, a government physical education teacher, forced her to exercise for three hours daily. When she failed to comply due to fatigue or health issues, he allegedly denied her food for days.

She alleged that her husband repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction, claiming his life was ruined because he could have married someone like Nora Fatehi. Her complaint levelled allegations of dowry harassment, domestic violence, miscarriage, threats, and blackmail against her husband and in-laws.

The couple was married in March 2025 in Ghaziabad in a lavish ceremony, with total expenses amounting to approximately Rs 76 lakh, including a Mahindra Scorpio worth Rs 24 lakh and Rs 10 lakh in cash. Despite this, she claimed that her in-laws made continuous demands for land, cash, and other valuables.

After becoming pregnant, the woman alleged that her in-laws gave her food that harmed her health. In July 2025, she suffered excessive bleeding and unbearable pain and was subsequently admitted to hospital, where the doctors confirmed a miscarriage caused by mental and physical abuse, along with improper diet.

Following the incident, Shanvi returned to her maternal home. She alleged that her husband, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law abused her and her family over video calls and threatened her with divorce. On July 26, when she returned to her in-laws' house with her parents, she was denied entry and was also refused the return of her jewelry, gifted by her maternal family.

ACP Saloni Agarwal confirmed the complaint, saying, "A woman had complained that her husband misbehaves with her since marriage. Her husband likes actress Nora Fatehi, and he makes her exercise for three hours to make her like Nora Fatehi. And if she does not do it, he does not give her anything to eat. The woman's complaint and a case have been registered by the police, and further action will be taken after investigating the matter."
