Mumbai: Television actor Karan Mehra, who shot to fame with the show 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' was arrested late on Monday night after his wife, actress and model Nisha Rawal, approached police for being assaulted by her husband.
According to police, Mehra allegedly pushed Rawal against the wall following a heated domestic brawl in their Goregaon home. The actor was subsequently booked under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code for assault. The actor was, however, granted bail on Tuesday morning.
The couple, who have a four year old son, were embroiled in a domestic dispute on Monday, following which Mehra allegedly pushed Rawal in a fit of rage, resulting in her getting hurt on the head.
Soon after the incident, Rawal approached police and lodged a complaint against her husband. Sources claimed that this is the first time Rawal has filed a complaint against her actor-husband.
Mehra has been booked under section 336 (Act endangering life or personal safety of others) and 337 (Causing hurt by act endangering life or personal safety of others), following which he was held by Goregaon Police.
