Actress Rukhsar Rehman and director-producer Faruk Kabir’s wedding is facing turmoil, as they have decided to end their 13-year marriage. The couple has been grappling with numerous issues over the past few months, and their attempts to reconcile their differences have proven unsuccessful. Since February this year, the estranged couple has been residing apart. According to a report in ETimes, a source close to the actress revealed that Rukhsar Rehman had certain “non-negotiable” concerns which led to her decision to terminate the marriage.

On the other hand, Faruk Kabir, the director of the Khuda Haafiz franchise, also confirmed the separation and stated, “I’m a very private person and this is a personal matter, so I don’t want to talk about it right now.”
