Seema and Sohail's divorce
Seema and Sohail fell in love and eloped got married. They tied the knot in 1998 when they were in their early 20s. They filed for a divorce in 2022 and were living separately for a couple of years before that. They co-parent their two sons- Yohan and Nirvaan.
Seema who is a designer made her acting debut with the Netflix reality show 'Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. It was in the season 2 of the show she opened up about her separation with Sohail. The actor also barely made an appearance on the show. Other husbands Chunky Panday, Samir Soni and Sanjay Kapoor made frequent appearance on the show.
During a recent podcast with Shivani Pau, Seema Sajdeh revealed that she had requested the producers of the show to only portray the reality of her separation from Sohail Khan in the series, being careful not to hurt anyone’s feelings in the process. “I just told my producer that look, whatever it is, it has to be the truth. As long as it doesn’t hurt anyone’s feelings, " she said.
In the same interview, she was asked if there was a point when she felt like walking out of the marriage. She said that there was and she was separated from her husband for five years before they applied for divorce.
“Why should I blame him, it suited both of us. Our son Nirvan was at that age where he didn’t want it but there came a time when I had to choose between my marriage and my son. My son was going down a path that I was very scared of. One morning I woke up and realised that either I focus all my energies on saving this marriage, or my son. That’s when I decided and chose him.”
Seema also said that there were talks of a 'other women' being in the equation which led to separation. However, she said that the real reason for the marriage to end was the wellness of their children.
“Some people say all sort of things, that I felt because of other women, that’s the most common one. But no, I made a choice. When two people are in a situation where both of them are not happy, when there is constant fighting, the fallout is always the kids. You don’t realise that in that phase of your life, time passes so quickly, kids grow up quicky, you don’t realise when you have done damaged there (on the kids). The kids are collateral damage. So, it was a conscious decision for him.
“Honestly, divorce is a piece of paper. We lived separately for quite a few years and it was fine. Nirvan was going to school, he had many conversations with me, then he went to the university and said, ‘Mumma I am ok now, you can go ahead.’ That’s when I decided that ok now is the time I can get divorced. It was just paperwork,” she added.
