Abhinav Shukla Accuses Brands Of Cheating Him, Plans Legal Action: ‘They Violated The Contract'
Television actor Abhinav Shukla has revealed that he was cheated by two brands he collaborated with.
Abhinav Shukla, a well-known face in the Indian television industry, has found himself in the midst of a troubling situation after his recent collaboration with two brands took an unexpected turn. The actor, who is admired not only for his performances but also for his forthright nature, took to Instagram to publicly call out the brands for allegedly cheating him and violating their contractual agreement.
Abhinav, who enjoys a strong fan base with over a million followers on social media, posted a candid message on his Instagram stories stating, 'I am no longer associated with two brands as they have violated the contract & cheated on me out of my money!" He went on to reveal that he is taking the matter seriously and intends to pursue legal action. 'Will be taking appropriate legal action as per the law!" he wrote, sending a clear message that he will not tolerate professional misconduct.
This isn't the first time the actor has had to deal with controversy. Just a few weeks ago, Abhinav received online death threats from a Bishnoi gang member following a public spat involving his wife, Rubina Dilaik, and actor Asim Riaz. The altercation stemmed from an incident on the reality show Battleground, where Rubina had a heated exchange with Asim. Abhinav publicly supported his wife and criticized Asim, which allegedly led to threats being issued against him and his family—a matter that left many fans shocked and concerned.
Professionally, Abhinav has carved a niche for himself with his work across both fiction and reality television. From popular daily soaps like Geet – Hui Sabse Parayi, Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, and Diya Aur Baati Hum to reality shows such as Bigg Boss 14 and Khatron Ke Khiladi 11, he has showcased impressive range and resilience in his career.
On the personal front, Abhinav has been enjoying a beautiful chapter with his wife and fellow actor Rubina Dilaik. The couple tied the knot in 2018 in an intimate ceremony in Shimla and became proud parents to twin daughters, Edhaa and Jeeva, in November 2023. The duo frequently shares endearing moments with their little ones on social media, giving fans heartwarming glimpses into their life as new parents.
