In a major development, popular Haryanvi singer, dancer, and former Bigg Boss 11 contestant Sapna Choudhary has moved the Dwarka Mahila Court in New Delhi, filing a formal domestic violence case against her husband, Yashveer (Veer) Sahu.
Taking immediate note of the gravity of the allegations, Judicial Magistrate Nidhi Singh granted the singer interim protection under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. The court has strictly restrained Sahu from approaching, contacting, or visiting Choudhary at her temporary or permanent residence and workplace.
The legal action comes at a critical professional juncture for the 35-year-old performer. The court issued the restrictive orders explicitly ahead of the premiering event of her upcoming feature film, Momacu, scheduled for June 10, 2026.
Choudhary’s legal counsel, Advocate Preeti Singh, successfully argued that there was a “grave apprehension” that Sahu would attempt to create a public scene, threaten, or assault the artist at the venue to deliberately malign her reputation and disrupt her professional commitments. Consequently, the court has legally barred Sahu from entering the premises of the film’s premiere.
According to the comprehensive case records presented during the initial hearing, Choudhary alleged that her husband had repeatedly assaulted her physically and orchestrated unpleasant, humiliating confrontations in public spaces.
The situations eventually escalated to a point where the singer chose to leave their shared marital home along with her two minor children to ensure their safety. To support the petition, Choudhary’s legal team submitted critical documentary evidence before the magistrate, including medical reports detailing physical injuries, photographic proof of the alleged abuse, and electronic audio recordings containing verbal threats made by Sahu.
Reacting to the interim relief, Advocate Preeti Singh stated, “The interim protection granted by the learned Court under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act in favor of my client against her husband underscores the object of the law to provide immediate protection where circumstances warrant. As the matter is sub judice, we will refrain from commenting further on the merits and have full faith in the judicial process.”
To guarantee absolute safety, the Mahila Court has directed the local Protection Officer and the area Station House Officer (SHO) to strictly oversee compliance with the order. The court has issued a formal summons to Veer Sahu, scheduling the next detailed hearing for July 25, 2026.
