Nikhil Patel spoke to ETimes TV and shared his side of the story. The businessman revealed the reason behind his separation from TV actress Dalljiet Kaur. Patel said, "In January this year, Dalljiet decided to leave Kenya with her son Jaydon and return to India, which ultimately led to our separation. We both realized that the foundation of our blended family wasn't as strong as we had hoped, making it hard for Dalljiet to settle in Kenya."
