Patiala Court Summons Armaan Malik and His Wives Over Alleged Bigamy as Payal Announces Pregnancy

A petition accusing Malik of contracting more than one legal marriage under the Hindu Marriage Act, coupled with claims of offending religious sentiments, prompted today’s court summons.

Overview

  • The Patiala District Court has ordered YouTuber Armaan Malik and his wives, Payal and Kritika, to appear on September 2 in response to a private petition.
  • Petitioner Davinder Rajput alleges Malik entered four marriages without ending earlier unions and that a social-media video of Payal as the goddess Kali offended religious sentiments.
  • After confusion over an Instagram post showing Kritika with a pregnancy test, the family clarified that Payal is expecting her fourth child.
  • Malik married Payal in 2011 and wed her friend Kritika in 2018 without a divorce, a household dynamic highlighted on Bigg Boss OTT 3 in 2024.
  • Investigations under the Hindu Marriage Act remain ongoing ahead of the September hearing, with both bigamy and religious-sentiment claims under review.
