This revelation sheds light on the dramatic turn of events that occurred during their relationship.
Somy Ali commented on the situation, saying, “The wedding cards were printed, but Sangeeta caught Salman red-handed in my apartment. What Salman did to Sangeeta, the same happened to me. This is called karma, when I grew up a little, I understood about it.”

She confessed that she had moved to Mumbai with aspirations of entering the film industry and harbored a deep crush on Salman Khan. However, their relationship turned turbulent, with allegations of abuse. Somy revealed that she endured physical abuse and emotional manipulation under the guise of love and care.
While Salman and Somy’s relationship was short-lived in the public eye, Somy has previously stated that they had an affair that spanned eight years.
