"His parents are aware that he bears me and that he tried to kill me. They also know about us living together and they visit on weekends. I lived with him till date as we were supposed to get married anytime soon and had the blessings of his family," the letter read.

"Henceforth I am not willing to live with him. So any kind of physical damage should be considered coming from him as he has been blackmailing me to kill me or hurt me whenever he sees me anywhere," the letter added.

Earlier this month, Shraddha's former colleague, Karan revealed that a complaint was filed by Shraddha against Aaftab but Shraddha did not proceed further after Aaftab's parents promised her that Aaftab would move out of the house.
