In a throwback interview, Fardeen Khan opened up about the reason behind his absence from the silver screen and shared that he wanted to be there for his family.
Bollywood actor, Fardeen Khan got married to his longtime sweetheart, Natasha Madhwani, on December 14, 2005, and the couple is blessed with two kids, Diani Isabelle Khan and Azarius Fardeen Khan. For the unversed, the duo shifted their base to London in 2009, and Fardeen took a break from his acting career. Now, if reports are to be believed, Fardeen and Natasha might be heading towards separation after a marital bliss of over 15 years.
Back in 2020, in an interview with Hindustan Times, Fardeen Khan was asked why he has been missing from the films since 2010 as his fans miss seeing him on the silver screen. Responding to the same, Fardeen stated that he wanted to focus on his family and spend some time with his wife, Natasha, and their kids, Diani and Azarius. He was quoted as saying:
“I wanted to be there for my wife Natasha and my kids, who are the centre of my world. I enjoy being a dad. Now that I am back, I feel like a newcomer. But I think I come with a certain degree of wisdom. You are calmer while approaching things, and you have seen how things work. I am glad to be back."

Earlier, in an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Fardeen Khan opened up about why he had shifted to London with his wife, Natasha, after the death of his father, Feroz Khan, due to lung cancer in 2009. Talking about the same, the actor stated that he and Natasha were keen on starting a family, but they had challenges in having children. Sharing that they had a bad experience with the doctors in Mumbai, Fardeen revealed that he couldn't see Natasha's body suffering due to the difficult IVF process. In his words:
"After my father passed, I needed some time off. I went through a tough time. I had a little bit of a health scare myself in 2009, just a few months after my father passed. Then we were very keen to have a family, Natasha and me. We had challenges in having children, so we had to go the IVF route. We had a bad experience with doctors here in Mumbai. Natasha really suffered because IVF is not easy. It's very hard on your body and on your health."
Reports are rife that Fardeen Khan and his wife, Natasha Madhvani have been living separately for a year now, and they might head towards separation on an amicable note. The news is disheartening for their fans, who hailed Fardeen Khan for taking a break from acting to focus on his family. As per a report in The Times Of India, Fardeen is currently living in Mumbai along with his mother, while Natasha is putting up in London with her kids. However, it is still unclear what went wrong between the duo that made them take this drastic step. A source close to the couple revealed:
“It’s been over a year since the two have been living separately. Issues started cropping up between the two. When they were unable to cope with the circumstances, they decided to go separate ways for the betterment of each other.”
