Bollywood saw some of the biggest separations of all time this year and it was surely a tough year for the fans of those celebrities who got divorced. Here¡¯s a look at ones who couldn¡¯t see a happily ever after.
Bollywood saw its unfortunate share of separations in 2024 leaving fans in disbelief and with heavy hearts. Behind all the glamour, the smiles, and the red carpets, several relationships ended quietly, and a new chapter began for these celebrities. Let¡¯s take a look at the celebrity couples who parted ways in 2024 leaving a void in all of us:-
Nata?a Stankovi? and Hardik Pandya
Actress Nata?a Stankovi? and cricketer Hardik Pandya were once the epitome of a fairytale couple. They got engaged in 2020 and welcomed a son named Agastya the same year. But in July 2024, they announced their split. The news was heartbreaking, as it seemed like they had everything¡ªa loving family, a future together. Their statement was calm, almost too calm, saying the decision was mutual and that they would co-parent their son with love.
Urmila Matondkar amd Mohsin Akhtar Mir
Urmila and Mir¡¯s marriage had always been private, away from the media spotlight. They married in 2016, and for years, their relationship seemed almost untouched by the chaos of fame. But in September 2024, news broke that the couple had decided to part ways. There were no dramatic statements, just a mutual understanding that their paths had diverged. Fans didn¡¯t get much detail, just the sense that sometimes, people just grow apart.
Esha Deol and Bharat Takhtani
Esha and Bharat¡¯s divorce in February 2024 left many wondering what had gone wrong. Married since 2012, the couple had two young daughters and appeared to have built a beautiful life together. But after nearly a decade, they announced their separation with little fanfare, just a simple statement confirming their decision. It¡¯s always tough when a family changes, but for Esha and Bharat, it was clear they were both focused on the future, even if it wasn¡¯t together.
Sania Mirza and Shoaib Malik
The relationship between tennis star and TV star Sania Mirza and cricketer Shoaib Malik was always in the public eye. Their marriage, which began in 2010, had always been filled with admiration, but also struggles, given the distance between them due to their careers. In January 2024, after months of speculation, they officially confirmed their divorce. While Shoaib announced another wedding soon after, Sania moved on to focus on their five-year-old son Izaan.
Isha Koppikar and Timmy Narang
Isha and Timmy¡¯s divorce in early 2024 felt almost like a whisper. Married since 2009, the couple had lived their life away from the media circus, maintaining a low-key existence despite Isha¡¯s Bollywood career. Koppikar in an interview with Bombay Times revealed, ¡°I really cannot pinpoint what went wrong... we just kind of drifted apart. It was his decision, he said, This is not working out.¡±
