Bhojpuri superstar and politician Pawan Singh and his wife Jyoti Singh, married in 2018, have been embroiled in a marital dispute. Jyoti has sought Rs 10 crore in maintenance from Pawan amid their ongoing divorce proceedings. Amid this, Bhojpuri actress Akshara Singh, who was once in a relationship with Pawan, supported Jyoti's alimony demands, stating that she fully deserves it, calling it her 'right' and hoping she gets it.
Akshara Singh Backs Pawan Singh's Wife Jyoti's Alimony Demand
Speaking to PTI, Akshara said in Hindi, "Har ladki agar aapne shaadi ki hai, shaadi karke aap kisi ko le jaate hain, toh aapka daayitv banta hai. Ek ladki ka haq banta hai ki woh apni alimony le, toh woh sahi hai apne jagah pe. Definitely, dena hi chahiye. Agar woh 10 crore maange, chahe 20 crore maange, humko toh lagta hai 100 crore bhi kam pad jaayega. Jo ladki ne jeela hai, woh 100 crore bhi kam hai dena, so I think dena chahiye. Aur samaj ko milkar dena chahiye."
