Devoleena Bhattacharjee married her gym trainer, Shanawaz Shaikh, in December of last year. From 2012 to 2017, the actor was best known for his role as 'Gopi Bahu' in 'Saath Nibhaaana Saathiya'.
Devoleena replied to a tweet thread that read: "My colleague’s friend Nidhi had an interfaith affair. She casually asked her boyfriend to watch Kerala Story. He not only refused but also abused her & accused her of being Islamophobic. She got scared & asked her bf why is he being so rude & how can she be Islamophobic when she is dating a Muslim. Her bf replied if she is not Islamophobic then she should convert to Islam & marry him."
"She agreed. But, she still wanted to see the movie. So, she went to watch the movie with my friend. Right after the movie, she called her bf & broke up. This is the impact Kerala Story is having on society. This is why they want to ban the movie. Everybody is waking up," the tweet read further.
