Imran Khan reveals emotional toll of divorce from Avantika Malik; says, “I couldn't even get myself out of bed”

Actor Imran Khan, who is all set to make a comeback in Bollywood, has opened out about the consequences of his divorce from ex-wife Avantika Malik. In a conversation with Humans of Bombay, the actor said that he went through a terrible time after the split.

He said, "When I separated in 2019, I was at my weakest—emotionally and physically. I'd say, I would describe it as a husk of a human being. Brushing my teeth and taking a shower was a monumental ask. I didn't know if I could do that. I couldn't even get myself out of bed, I would stay in my pajamas, turn the doorbell off, lock the door and just vegetate.”

“I did have parental duties, we split custody so Thursdays to Sundays, my daughter would be with me. So on the days that she is with me, it doesn't matter how weak I feel, whatever it is, you have to get out there,” he added.

Imran Khan confirmed his connection with Lekha Washington a few months ago. In an interview with Vogue in March, Imran acknowledged his relationship with Lekha Washington and corrected the narrative of his girlfriend being perceived as a "homewrecker". Imran Khan told Vogue, "The speculation that I'm romantically involved with Lekha Washington is true. I'm divorced and have been separated since February 2019."  He added, "There's this narrative of Lekha being a homewrecker, which infuriates me because not only is it misogynistic but it also takes away my agency as an individual."

Imran discussed his relationship with Lekha and how it began, saying, "Lekha and I grew close during the lockdown, a year and a half after I had been separated from Avantika and almost a year after she had separated from her partner, not husband as it has been widely reported."

Imran Khan has appeared in films like as Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, I Hate Luv Stories, Break Ke Baad, Delhi Belly, and Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola. Lekha has appeared in Telugu and Tamil films.
