Ansari states that Mittal is allegedly pressuring him to withdraw a previous case. He reports receiving calls from unknown numbers, with individuals claiming links to the underworld and influential figures from Uttar Pradesh, threatening him with dire consequences if he does not retract the earlier complaint filed against her.
Allegations of Intimidation and Fraud
In his complaint, Faizan Ansari detailed a pattern of intimidation. He claims to have been receiving persistent threatening calls, explicitly warned that his life would be in danger if he failed to withdraw his complaint against Tanya Mittal. Beyond the threats, Ansari alleges that Mittal misrepresented her personal life and family background during her time on the Bigg Boss show.
Further accusations include defrauding individuals for money. Ansari has formally requested the Gwalior police to register an FIR against Tanya Mittal, her brother, and her mother, urging a thorough and impartial investigation into these serious claims.
The Preceding Dispute Unfolds
The current escalation stems from a dispute that reportedly began approximately six months ago. On July 2, the Vishwavidyalaya Police Station had summoned Faizan Ansari to record his statement concerning the initial complaint he had filed.
Following this, Ansari visited the SP office to seek police protection, citing the threats he was receiving to coerce him into withdrawing the earlier complaint. Ansari informed media outlets that the genesis of the conflict traces back to an incident where Tanya Mittal allegedly had a man named Balraj Sahni arrested at Mumbai airport. Simmi Rajput, a mutual acquaintance of both Sahni and Ansari, had then sought Ansari's assistance, leading him to Gwalior to file a complaint against Mittal and demand an investigation.
Who is Tanya Mittal?
Tanya Mittal, a native of Gwalior, rose to national recognition after her appearance on the popular reality show Bigg Boss. Beyond her reality TV stint, Mittal is recognized as a social media influencer, entrepreneur, and model.
Her achievements include winning the Miss Tourism Asia 2018 title and representing India at the international pageant held in Lebanon. She has also served as a brand ambassador for UP Tourism, notably for the Mahakumbh 2025 initiative. Media reports suggest Mittal is a successful businesswoman, with estimated monthly earnings exceeding ₹6 lakh and a net worth around ₹2 crore.
Authorities are expected to investigate Ansari's complaint thoroughly. Stay tuned to MTTV India News for the latest developments.
