Imran Khan for all the 90’s kids, is the face of a young boy in love. He has been best known for his role in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, next to Genelia Deshmukh. Well, he has been loved for his charismatic and optimistic personality. Over the past years, the actor has been away from cinema for personal growth. Imran has now revealed the real reason behind his divorce from Avantika Malik.
Imran Khan shares the real reason behind his divorce from Avantika Malik
Imran Khan recently sat down for an exclusive interview with Malini Agarwal on Not Done Yet and offered a very personal glimpse into his life. He spoke about therapy, co-parenting, and self-awareness and revealed how it was difficult for him to come to terms with the fact that he wanted a divorce. Imran revealed that it was difficult for him to make the decision, but he did not want to be in a marriage that made him unhappy. In his words:
“With all of the pain and complications of that separation, somewhere you kind of weighed out and you weighed the alternative, which is to propagate an unhealthy pattern and teach an unhealthy pattern to your own child. Within that, I weighed what I consider to be the lesser of two evils.”
Imran did not get into the fact if his marriage was a failure or a success. He revealed that the choice of his divorce came from the fact that he did not want an unhealthy relationship, which he wanted to pass on to his daughter. The actor revealed that a healthy environment for his daughter was not created. However, when he parted ways, a better environment was made for her.
Imran Khan had earlier revealed that his dynamics with Avantika Malik were not healthy
Earlier in an interview, Imran Khan spoke about his childhood experiences and reflected on how his mom faced a lot of social judgment. The actor shared that his parents had separated back in the 1980s, and it was those memories that had kind of shaped his belief system. It was that preserving social appearances can never come at the cost of a child’s emotional well-being. Earlier, in an interview, Imran Khan had spoken about his separation from his childhood love, Avantika. He shared that realising that his dynamics with his former love were not at all healthy. It was a relationship that started at a very young age, when he was 18 or 19 years old. He did not have nearly enough life experience to have an understanding of what healthy interpersonal dynamics are and what unhealthy dynamics are.
Imran Khan shares that his daughter has helped him navigate the toughest periods of his life
Imran Khan further in the interview had credited his daughter, Imara for helping him navigate the most toughest journeys related to his life. The actor had become emotional when he had shared about the impact his daughter had on him. Imran shared that words are inadequate, as he can never find enough or powerful enough words to express the joy, the love, the value, and the meaning that she’s brought to his life. Imran also revealed that kids learn a lot more from the relations they see and observe, rather than the explanations that are given to them. That was the reason why Imran kind of normalised unhealthy relationship dynamics within his family structure. In his words:
“Through a lot of complicated and difficult times, this girl was my light. This girl was my lighthouse. You know, kind of the beacon that you set. You set your compass that way.”
