Isha Rikhi describes cheating in past marriage to Badshah

Punjabi actress Isha Rikhi has shared details regarding her past relationship and marriage to rapper Badshah while appearing on the reality show Bigg Boss 20. During a conversation with fellow contestant Kanika Mann, Rikhi described the relationship as “very toxic” and claimed she experienced physical, emotional, and social cheating.

Rikhi stated that she only realized the extent of the situation after the relationship ended, noting that she felt she had been “played the whole time.” She elaborated on the social aspect of the betrayal, explaining that while she was treated like a best friend in private, she was only introduced to a limited social circle rather than being genuinely integrated into his wider life. She suggested the behavior was driven by “convenience.”

The couple, who had reportedly been together for nearly four years, announced their separation via a joint statement on August 31. Their marriage had previously been kept largely private until photos of a low-key ceremony were shared by Rikhi’s mother in March 2026.
