Twisha’s pregnancy was confirmed on April 17, 2026, after which Twisha said she didn’t want a domesticated life as she had certain aspirations from her life. Upon returning from the hospital, Twisha expressed a desire to go to her home in Delhi. That very evening, she took a flight to Delhi and subsequently reached her home in Noida.”Twisha’s mother and brother came to Bhopal with her on April 23.Samarth Singh also revealed the couple had planned a trip to Bengaluru on April 24, but Twisha refused and chose Ajmer instead, sparking conflict.“Both families intervened for reconciliation, and the couple returned to Bhopal on April 30. Later, they argued after Samarth Singh learned that Twisha spent only one day in Ajmer and most of her time in Delhi. He said they fought over her remark that she belonged to the world of glamour and never wanted a confined domestic life,” officer added.According to Samarth’s statement on May 12, Twisha visited a beauty parlour, returned at 6pm, went for a walk with him, and had dinner together.He claimed she went downstairs to talk on the phone while he slept.
