A few media portals reported rumours of Nawazuddin Siddiqui's wife Aaliya Siddiqui's alleged extra-marital affair with her friend, Peeyush Pandey, who is working in a media house.

According to reports, Aaliya put a picture with Peeyush as her WhatsApp display picture, which triggered these rumours. When Bombay Times reached out to Peeyush Pandey, he was shocked and denied rumours of an affair with Aaliya.

He said, "I got to know about their divorce notice through the media. I am the scapegoat here. These link-up rumours are completely baseless and ridiculous! Why am I being dragged into this? I have nothing to do with this."

Peeyush also said that his partner already knows the truth as she is also friends with Aaliya. He will now consult his lawyer as to what needs to be taken to safeguard his interests.

Speaking about the Whatsapp display picture, Peeyush said, "That picture was taken at a party and there were over 20 people there. We all click pictures. It's a normal thing to do. If there are three people in the picture and you crop it and use just two people, you can claim whatever you want to."

Two days ago, Aaliya joined Twitter to state that reports suggesting that she was allegedly having an affair with media professional Peeyush Pandey were malicious and untrue. She said, “To begin with let me clarify that I am not into "ANY RELATIONSHIP" with any MAN; and any media report which makes such claims, are absolutely false. It appears that some section of the media have manipulated my photograph to make such ridiculous claims to divert attention.”
