Mumbai: In an otherwise steady relationship, Imran Khan and Avantika Malik’s marriage seems to have run into trouble, if sources are anything to go by. It is learnt that the couple are staying separately for some time now.
The couple’s growing differences of late have resulted in Avantika’s leaving home with their daughter Imaara. Both of them have avoided media since then and refused to divulge the reason behind their split. Although Avantika’s mother Vandana trashed the rumours, the buzz of their separation is getting louder with each passing day.
In the meantime, a source who is in the know revealed to a Mumbai based portal that there are really some differences among the couple and the marriage is on the rocks.
“Imran has not faced much luck as an actor. After Katti Batti failed, offers started drying up and soon enough, he was left with no work. It’s been four years that the actor is at home, doing absolutely nothing. He wanted to turn a director but that also has not taken shape the way he envisioned. He just did a small short with Dharma 2.0 and that’s it,” the source was quoted as saying by the portal.
The source added, “He (Imran) became really irritable and would react at the littlest of things. All their savings were getting used up and Avantika had to finally rely on her side of the family to support them. There were regular arguments between him and Avantika and their house became a debating platform each day. Avantika couldn’t take it anymore and realised that all these regular tiffs and fights were affecting their child Imaara. She called her family and told them everything. They tried various ways to reconcile but to no avail. Both Imran and Avantika were fuming and they decided to take some time off their marriage and she moved out with the kid.”
However, the couple hasn’t filed for divorce yet, but grapevine says they are living separately and the relationship may head for permanent separation. Now, it remains to be seen whether the couple can iron out the differences or they call off their marriage.
