New Delhi: Bhojpuri superstar Pawan Singh has addressed the recent allegations made by his wife, Jyoti Singh, who accused him of cheating during a live Instagram session. The actor, who recently exited the reality show Rise & Fall, has now issued a detailed statement clarifying his side of the story.

In his statement, Pawan stated that Jyoti Singh had visited his Lucknow residence not to confront him but to request help with her political ambitions. Refuting her claims, the actor explained that he had treated her with complete respect during the meeting and that the presence of police officers at his home was purely precautionary.

Responding to the controversy, the actor wrote, “Main apne jeevan mein ek hi baat jaanta hoon ki janata mere liye Bhagwan hai – kya main un logon ki janbhavna ko thes pahuchaunga jinke badolat main yahan tak pahucha hoon [In my life, I believe only one thing – the people are like God to me. Would I ever hurt the sentiments of those because of whom I have reached where I am today]?”

He further revealed that Jyoti had asked him to use his influence to help her enter politics. “Jyoti Singh ji, kya yeh sach nahi hai ki kal subah aap meri society mein aayi thi, toh maine aapko sasmmaan apne ghar bulaya aur lagbhag 1 ghanta 30 minute hum dono ki baatcheet hui [Ms. Jyoti Singh, isn’t it true that you came to my society yesterday morning, and I respectfully invited you to my home, where we spoke for about an hour and thirty minutes]?”

Pawan Singh denies calling the police

According to Pawan, the discussion largely revolved around Jyoti’s request to contest elections. “Aapke dwara bas ek hi baat baar-baar kahi gayi ki ‘mujhe chunav ladwaiye kaise bhi,’ jo ki mere bas ka nahi tha [You kept repeating only one thing – ‘Make me contest the elections somehow,’ which was not in my control],” he added.

Dismissing reports that he called the police to have Jyoti arrested, Pawan clarified that law enforcement officials were already present to prevent any disturbance. “Samaaj mein yeh bhram failaya gaya ki maine police bulayi, jabki sachchai yeh hai ki police subah se wahan isliye maujood thi taaki jo bhi ho, unki upasthiti mein ho – kahin bhi aapke saath aaye logon dwara ya kisi aur ke dwara koi anhooni na ho,” he explained.

What are the allegations made by Jyoti Singh?

Earlier, Jyoti Singh had posted a note on Instagram claiming that she had been trying to reach her husband for months about “family and political matters” but received no response. She alleged being turned away multiple times, even during Chhath Puja.

The couple has been estranged since April 2022, when Jyoti filed a maintenance case seeking Rs 5 lakh per month. The case is still pending, with the next hearing scheduled for September 8.
