Who is Rahul Navlani

Rahul was Vaishali Takkar’s neighbour and ex-boyfriend, who was troubling her. He and his wife Disha were constantly harassing her and did everything to make her life miserable.

Vaishali Takkar's former co-star Nishant Singh Malkani’s statement

Nishant Singh Malkani’s who played Vaishali’s on-screen husband in Raksha Bandhan: Rasal Apni Bhai Ki Dhal talked about the situation in a recent interview with ETimes. He shared, “Vaishali was a dear friend. It was very shocking for me when I heard the news. I woke up from my sleep when I heard the news, and I couldn't believe it. I first thought she passed away in some accident or some incident happened to her. But when I got to know that she took her life, I was shattered. Because she was a very strong girl. I spoke to her a week ago and she showed me her fiance's photos. She also requested me to not share the pictures with anyone as she herself wanted to show it to everyone. She was so happy, she told me that she was going to get married in November and in fact had invited me for her wedding. We made so many plans about her wedding. It is very unfortunate. I really pray that wherever she is she's happy. If she was so troubled, stressed and depressed, I just pray and hope that now she is in a peaceful space.”

If anyone asks him then he is going to tell everything in detail and help with the investigation.
