Gone are the times when a couple used to stay in an unhappy marriage. Nowadays, a couple prefers to end their marriage when they are not able to understand each other. And that's what Hrishikesh and Trisha did when problems started popping in their marital bliss. In the year 2014, the couple had started to live separately and eventually filed for a divorce, which was granted in 2021.
Recently, in an interview with The Times of India, Hrishikesh opened up on his divorce. The actor shared that the couple had lacked compatibility. He shared, "With time, we realised that we lacked compatibility as a couple. We started living separately, as we didn’t want things to get ugly. I was quiet for all these years because I have always respected my privacy. I can talk about it now, as the divorce is through. Fortunately, there is no bad blood between Trisha and me. We handled our separation maturely. I am grateful to her and especially my in-laws, who have been supportive despite our decision to go our separate ways."
