Ravindra Jadeja's father accuses Jadeja's BJP MLA wife of creating rift in family; Jadeja responds
New Delhi: Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja on Friday responded to the allegations labelled by his father against his wife, of creating rift between the father-son duo and Jadeja's sour relationship with his family.
Taking to micro-blogging site X (formerly Twitter), Jadeja called the interview scripted and an attempt to tarnish image of his wife.
Jadeja's father had accused his wife Rivaba who is also a BJP MLA of creating rift in the family adding that Jadeja had not spoken to him or his sister in a long time. He had added that the problems began right after Jadeja's marriage owing to a fight between him and his wife over proprietorship of his restaurant.
"Right after their marriage, there was a dispute regarding the ownership of Ravindra's restaurant. She (Rivaba) told him to transfer the ownership of the restaurant to her name. They even had a major fight because of that," the father alleged during an interview with a Gujrati daily.
In response, Jadeja wrote "Let's ignore what's said in scripted interviews,"
"All the things said in the nonsense interview are meaningless and untrue. It is a one-sided story and I completely deny the allegations. The attempts made to tarnish the image of my wife are truly wrong and unbecoming. I also have a lot to say but won't do it publicly." Jadeja further wrote in his post.
Jadeja's father also alleged that he hasn't kept cordial relations even with his sister.
"I don't call Ravindra, and I don't need him. He is not my father, I am his father. He is the one who is supposed to call me. All of this makes me cry. His sister also weeps on Rakshabandhan," said the father.
