Shabana Azmi has spoken in full support of her stepson Farhan and his wife Adhuna’s decision to separate after 16 years of marriage.
The actress, when asked the question why so many marriages are falling apart in the industry, said, “Marriages are not just falling apart in the film industry, but also in many sections of society. Expectations from marriage are changing.”
Farhan Akhtar and wife Adhuna had issued a statement last month announcing their decision to separate amicably and mutually. “This is to announce that we, Adhuna and Farhan, have mutually and amicably decided to separate. Our children remain our priority and it is immensely important to us, as responsible parents, that they be protected from unwarranted speculation and public glare. We sincerely request that we are given the privacy that is required at this time to move forward in a dignified manner,” read the statement.
This is the second star couple after Hrithik Roshan and Suzanne Khan to have announced separation after being together for more than a decade.
Marriages are no longer made in heaven
While their separation might come as a surprise to many, no body can deny that it becomes tough to keep the sparks alive, particularly if you’ve been married for a really long time.

Which is what Zoya said to Shabana when they were discussing about the split. “When I asked Zoya, she said, ‘Because today women can, they have a choice and they exercise it. Marriage is not a one-way street. Both partners have to adjust to each other. The concept of made-in-heaven is defunct.”
While it might be a different point of view, it certainly holds some truth in this day and age. We are quite with Azmi on that. As far as her relationship with Adhuna is concerned the veteran actress said, “I’ve always had an independent healthy relationship with Adhuna and it will always remain so.”
Now, that’s the way you should behave instead of cutting ties with someone you know for so long. We wish all take a cue from this!
