The incident came to limelight when Gulsaba filed a police complaint against his husband expressing his concerns over the matter. 

Notably, Gulsaba and Mohammad Salim from Prayagraj tied knot in January 2022. Salim moved to Saudi Arabia three months after their wedding to work for a private company.
