MUMBAI: Popular television actor Karan Mehra, who played the role of an ideal father and a doting husband in one of the country's longest running daily soaps, has been accused of beating his wife.

Daljeet further adds that Shaleen didn’t even want her to undergo caesarean and had accused her of influencing the doctors. Soon after they returned home, Shaleen stopped accompanying Daljeet and their son Shaarav for the baby’s vaccinations. “He was never there – physically, emotionally or financially. He would go missing every night. It was evident from his behaviour that he is involved with other women,” Daljeet said in an interview.
