Controversies
In 2023, she and her husband Victor David were embroiled in a controversy after allegedly damaging an IPS officer's car in Hyderabad's Jubilee Hills area. Reports say David accidentally hit the vehicle, and when confronted, Hayathi reportedly kicked the car, prompting a police complaint.[18]
In late September 2025, a 22-year-old domestic worker, Priyanka Bibar, filed a complaint alleging that she had been abused and harassed while employed at Hayathi’s residence in Shaikpet, Hyderabad.[19]
According to the complaint, the worker was repeatedly insulted and denied food, was threatened during an altercation over the couple's dog, and had her mobile phone allegedly snatched and smashed when she attempted to record the incident; she further alleged that her clothes were torn while escaping the residence. Filmnagar Police have registered a case against Dimple Hayathi and her husband David under Sections 74, 79, 351(2), and 324(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
Film Nagar police station inspector Santosham told they have issued notice to both the actress and her husband, based on complaint of Priyanka.[17]
