UP Man Forces Wife to Work Out 3 Hours Daily to Look Like Nora Fatehi, Booked for Harassment

Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh), August 20–21, 2025 – In a shocking case of domestic abuse, a 26-year-old woman has accused her husband of subjecting her to relentless harassment, including forcing her to work out for three hours every day so that she could look like Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi. The woman, in her police complaint, alleged that she was denied food, humiliated for her looks, pressured over dowry, and even forced to undergo an abortion without her consent.

The complaint has led to an FIR being registered against her husband, a physical education teacher from Meerut, and his family members under charges of dowry harassment, forced miscarriage, and domestic violence.

Obsession With Nora Fatehi

According to the FIR filed at the Women’s Police Station, the woman said her husband was “obsessed” with Nora Fatehi’s fitness and looks. He often told her that she needed to have a body like the actress, and if she failed to meet his standards, she would face consequences at home.

• Daily gym sessions: The victim revealed that her husband forced her to spend at least three hours in the gym every day. If she skipped, he would allegedly deny her food, saying she must control her weight at any cost.
• Constant taunts: The woman further stated that her husband insulted her physical appearance and even told her he had “ruined his life” by marrying her, as he wished to be with someone like Nora Fatehi.

This constant pressure reportedly damaged her self-esteem and left her mentally exhausted.

Dowry and Financial Exploitation

The victim’s complaint also included allegations of dowry harassment. Her family allegedly spent nearly ₹75 lakh on the wedding, which included a Mahindra Scorpio car, cash, and gold jewelry. Despite this, she said her in-laws continued to demand more and treated her with cruelty.

Forced Miscarriage Allegation

Perhaps the most disturbing claim in her complaint is that her husband allegedly gave her abortion pills without her consent when she was two months pregnant.

According to her, she was left severely ill after the miscarriage. Instead of providing proper care, her husband and in-laws allegedly abandoned her at her parents’ house. Doctors later confirmed that she had suffered a miscarriage due to the pills.

Thrown Out of the House

In July 2025, the woman said she was completely denied entry into her matrimonial home by her husband’s family. At this point, with nowhere else to turn, she approached the police and decided to file a formal complaint.

Police Action

Based on her statement, an FIR has been registered against her husband and his relatives. Ghaziabad DCP Dhawal Jaiswal confirmed that the case is under investigation, and all allegations, including those of forced miscarriage, dowry harassment, and physical and mental torture, are being thoroughly probed.

Larger Social Concerns

This case highlights not just a crime of domestic abuse but also the dangerous impact of unrealistic beauty standards. The husband’s obsession with Nora Fatehi—a public figure admired for her dance and fitness—turned into a toxic form of control over his wife’s body and life.

• Mental impact: Experts note that constant comparison to celebrities can deeply damage an individual’s confidence and mental health.
• Patriarchal mindset: The fact that the woman was denied food and subjected to forced workouts shows how women are often treated as objects to fit into men’s ideals of beauty.
• Dowry evil persists: Despite laws banning dowry, the demand for money, cars, and jewelry continues to play a major role in harassment cases, as seen in this case where crores of rupees failed to “satisfy” the groom’s family.
• Violation of bodily autonomy: Forcing a woman to undergo an abortion without her knowledge not only violates medical ethics but also constitutes one of the gravest forms of cruelty.

Conclusion

The Ghaziabad Nora Fatehi obsession case underlines how celebrity idolization, when combined with patriarchy and dowry greed, can result in devastating abuse. The young woman’s courage to step forward and lodge a complaint may help set a precedent for others suffering silently under similar pressures.

If proven in court, this case could become a landmark in expanding the understanding of domestic violence—beyond physical assault to include emotional torture, forced body-shaping, and violation of reproductive rights.

As the investigation progresses, all eyes will be on how the justice system handles this disturbing case of celebrity obsession gone too far.
