TV couple- Karan Mehra & Nisha Rawal have been hitting the headlines lately because of their assault case.
On Tuesday evening (June 1), a day after accusing her husband of domestic violence, Nisha held a press conference wherein she reacted to all the allegations that Karan had levelled against her.
As ETimes reported, while talking to the media, Nisha opened up on suffering from bipolar disorder in 2014 when she had a miscarriage and Karan wasn’t there by her side to support her. She also claimed that Karan was completely detached from her at that time.
Nisha says, “Bipolar is a mood disorder which happens due to extreme trauma and it’s genetic sometimes. I was diagnosed with bipolarity and I am not going to lie about it as I am not ashamed about it. But I am not a psycho, it is a mood disorder. And you all know how balanced I am. I create content for the web, I make videos, and write about things. I don’t have to prove anything. In September 2014, I was 5 months pregnant and I lost my child. Recently, I made a Mom’s group where women who lost their child could speak up about it as when I lost my child I did not have anyone to talk about the loss.”
“I wanted to go to my parents and talk to them because it was a very big trauma for me. In the middle of it my husband was beating me up, abusing me, he was unavailable, totally detached and that’s when I went to a therapist. In fact, Karan had stopped me from going to a therapist, he didn’t let me go to a gym, he was very controlling in everything. But I went to the therapist. I was detected with a depressive phase of bipolarity. I took medication for it for the next two-three months and I was fine. It was in 2014. My last medication was anti-anxiety and it was nothing to do with bipolarity because obviously this man was troubling me. My last medication was in August 2020. I have my prescription, if you need you can reach out to my therapist and speak to him,” she added.
During the conference, Nisha also shared one incident when she apparently had to tolerate the pain of a fractured toe for two months because Karan refused to take her to the doctor.
“I got hurt at home and injured a toe. I kept requesting him to take me to the doctor but he just ignored me. You will feel that a strong girl like me, why do I need to take permission from him? Because Karan had all the control. If there was any transaction in my account he would transfer to his account and then he would do what he wanted to do. For two months I lived with that fractured toe. You can confirm that with my doctor. For the media it is an overnight thing but a lot of my close friends knew that things were not great in my marriage like Rohit Verma and Munisha Khatwani. I had just asked Karan to take care of his future and education. I told him I would take care of the expenses till he reaches the 12th standard and you have 12 years to earn money, and if I can take care later also I will do it. I had clearly told him that I will always support him and never hold things against him.”
When Nisha was told of Karan’s allegation that she herself had banged her head against the wall to injure herself, she replied: “I know he is saying that but why would I do that? I am an actor, my face is precious. I have a child. Why would I do that?”
Meanwhile, Nisha’s close friends- designer Rohit K Verma & Munisha Khatwani have come out in her support in this case.
