Zeba Bakhtiar is a popular Pakistani actress. She made her Bollywood debut with Henna, under the direction of Randhir Kapoor. Also, she was thrown into the limelight when she married the celebrated singer, Adnan Sami. Now, she has recalled her marriage with the singer and their divorce.
Talking about the legal battle for custody of her son, the Henna actress shared, “It was very difficult. But I am thankful I got back with Azaan. It was 18 months of this custody battle. I wasn’t working during that time, but a few friends of mine told me to work for my own sanity. There was a friend who was doing a serial in England and I joined the same show. I went to London for a few months to shoot that.”
In the same interview, Zeba talked about how her marriage with Adnan Sami was difficult. “No woman ever breaks a marriage because she wants to break it. She does it when she reaches that point…you know, a point where you cannot take beyond that. When you absolutely have to. It is never like ‘I am going to be a cool and empowered woman and I will leave home’. No! It is because I have tried, and tried everything in my capacity, everything I knew, and tested all my patience and endurance. I did everything I could possibly do to save the relationship, but I am not reaching the point where this is going in any positive direction for either one of us.”
