The Indian cricketer's father had accusing Rivaba of creating a rift within the family, claiming that Ravindra had stopped contacting his father and sister post marriage.

"Everything said in the nonsense interview recently published by Divyabhaskar is totally false and untrue. It is a one-sided story. I completely reject it. I strongly condemn the actions taken to malign my wife's image. I also have many things to say; it's better that I don't make them public."
