Armaan Malik and family summoned

As per reports in the news portal, the court has issued notices asking all three (Payal, Armaan and Kritika) to appear on 2 September. The summons comes in response to a petition filed by Davinder Rajput, who has alleged that Armaan Malik has not just two, but four marriages. He alleged him of violating the Hindu Marriage Act, which permits only one marriage at a time for individuals practising Hinduism.

In addition to the bigamy charges, the petition also accuses Armaan and Payal of hurting religious sentiments. It states that Payal had dressed as Hindu goddess Kali in a video posted on Instagram, sparking outrage. The petitioner claims this act insulted religious beliefs and constitutes a punishable offence under Indian law.
