Nargis Fakhri Shares First Post Amid Sister’s Arrest: ‘We Are Coming For You’
Bollywood actress Nargis Fakhri has found herself in the headlines following the shocking arrest of her sister, Aliya Fakhri, who is accused of being involved in a tragic incident in Queens, New York. Aliya is alleged to have set a two-story garage on fire, leading to the deaths of her ex-boyfriend, Edward Jacobs, and his friend, Anastasia Star Ettienne. The victims reportedly died from smoke inhalation and thermal injuries. Aliya has been charged with murder and is currently being held at Rikers Island, New York’s largest jail, after pleading not guilty. If convicted, she faces the possibility of a life sentence.
While Nargis Fakhri has kept a low profile regarding her sister’s legal troubles, she recently broke her silence on social media with a post that has garnered significant attention. Amid the ongoing legal drama, Nargis shared a photo of herself with Housefull 5 co-stars Jacqueline Fernandez and Sonam Bajwa on her Instagram stories. The image quickly went viral, with the actress captioning it, “We are coming for you.” This post appears to be a reference to the upcoming release of Housefull 5, the latest film in the popular comedy franchise.
Housefull 5 is set to bring together a star-studded ensemble cast, including Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Fardeen Khan, and others, with a special song celebrating the 14-year legacy of the Housefull series. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film is scheduled for release on June 6, 2025. Fans of the franchise are eagerly awaiting this addition to the beloved comedy series.
As for the arrest of Aliya Fakhri, Nargis reportedly learned of the incident through the media, like the rest of the public. Despite the gravity of the situation, the actress has refrained from making any public statements on the matter until now. The tragedy has cast a shadow over the Fakhri family, but Nargis appears focused on her professional commitments, with Housefull 5 set to release next year.
