However, their relationship was short-lived, and they parted ways. Indian media bashed Kabir Bedi for leaving Parveen Babi, which affected her mental health. Now, for the first time Kabir Bedi shared details of his relationship and how it was Parveen, who had left him.
Recently, in an interview with Digital Commentary, Kabir Bedi discussed the reason for his breakup with Parveen. He shared that it ended when he forced her to get medical help because he knew that she wasn't right mentally. Recalling an incident, Kabir shared that Parveen was with him in Italy as he was becoming an international star with the show, Sandokan.

"Vo toh isliye humare relationship ki khatam hui kyunki jab Italy ke baad hum London aaye mai ne dekha uski condition kharab ho rahi hai. Aur usko yeh manjoor nahi tha, jab ki mai janta tha ki agar vo treatment nahi legi toh haal bigadta jayega. Or is baat pe huamri separation hogayi."
