What's the story
Actor Fardeen Khan—who seems to have disappeared from the Bollywood scene—is capturing headlines for allegedly facing rough waters in his marital life with his wife Natasha Madhvani. A recent report said that the couple has apparently decided to part ways "amicably." It also suggested that for some time now, they have been living separately. Notably, the exact reason behind their decision remains undisclosed.
Report
They've been reportedly living separately for 2 years
After being married for 18 years, the couple has reportedly decided to part ways. As per an ETimes report, a source revealed, "It's been over a year since the two have been living separately. When they were unable to cope with the circumstances, they decided to go separate ways." Khan is reportedly residing in Mumbai with his mother, while Madhvani is living in London.

All you need to know about Khan's wife, Madhvani
Not many are aware but similar to Khan, Madhvani also hails from a prominent Bollywood family, but she has always chosen to remain away from the spotlight. Khan's wife is the daughter of the legendary actor Mumtaz and Ugandan businessman Mayur Madhvani, who tied the knot in 1974. On the other hand, Khan is the son of the late actor Feroz Khan.
Relationship timeline
Here's a look at pair's relationship timeline
Khan, who rose to prominence with the success of his debut movie, Prem Aggan (1999), always kept his love story a secret from the media and social stares. While specifics about when and where the couple first met and how they fell in love remain unknown, reports suggest their love story commenced with a proposal on a flight from London to the United States.
Wedding
Hush-hush wedding that took everyone by surprise
The trend of marrying discreetly is not new, as back in 2005, Khan already used the "hush-hush wedding" formula. The nuptials of the couple were a well-kept secret—unknown to the public eye. The lavish affair commenced with an intimate sangeet ceremony, which reportedly took place on December 13, 2005. Following that, a grand wedding and reception took place on December 14 and 15, respectively.
Children
Couple blessed with 2 kids
The duo's union became the talk of the town, as Khan and Madhvani chose not to adhere to any specific faith while exchanging their vows. It was neither a nikaah nor a Hindu ceremony—instead, their matrimony was solemnized by the registrar. In 2013, the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter, Diani, and later in 2017, the family was blessed with a son, Azarius.
