THE TIMES OF INDIA (July 16, 2022)
Mumbai: Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s wife Aaliya Siddiqui on Thursday approached the Amboli police through her lawyer, claiming she had returned the money to co-producer Manju Gaharwal after the latter levelled allegations of cheating.
Gaharwal, co-producer and creative of Aaliya’s first production venture ‘Holy Cow’, had approached the Amboli police claiming Aaliya had cheated her of Rs. 31 lakhs which she had invested in the film. Apart from the money, she also alleged Aaliya had not given her due credit for the film.
Gaharwal said in her complaint that she had known Aaliya since 2005. She also knew that Aaliya wanted to become a producer. The Holy Cow project started when Aaliya asked Gaharwal to become the creative producer of af ilm and look for cast. The cheques given to the cast also bounced, claimed Gaharwal.
Advocate Rizwan Siddiquee for Aaliya said “the evidence taken on record prima facie prove acts of theft, extortion, criminal intimidation and defamation on the part of the accused Garhwal.”

BOMBAY TIMES (June 13, 2019)
Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s wife producer Aaliya Siddiqui unveiled the first look of her upcoming film, Holy Cow, at the recently concluded 72nd Cannes Film Festival.The film’s story is based on the social chaos of our times, and a cow is used as a metaphor to project the larger reality. Currently, in the post-production stage, the film stars Sanjay Mishra, Tigmanshu Dhulia, Rahul Mittra, Sadia Siddiqui and Mukesh Bhatt in key roles, while Nawazuddin makes a special appearance. French music director Mathias Duplessy has composed the background score.
This social satire — a collaboration between Aaliya’s production house Y S Entertainment and Paris-based production house, Ghosts City — has been written and directed by Sai Kabir, who previously helmed Revolver Rani.
Aaliya, along with co-producer Franck Priot, Sai Kabir and Mathias Duplessy, attended a special presentation for the media and buyers, and also participated in a question-answer session at the Cannes Film Market.
Aaliya says, “The script of the film struck a chord with me during the very first reading. My aim is to make sensible, sensitive and viable cinema, and set up a boutique production house, not a film factory. After Holy Cow, I am working on another ambitious project. Titled Teejan Bai, it is a biopic of the legendary folk singer of the same name.”
