Farah, who is the daughter of veteran actor Sanjay Khan, took to Instagram on Monday night to share the post about their separation.

Aqeel, also shared the same statement on his account.

"Sometimes two people grow apart. Sometimes they outgrow each other. It has been 9 years since my relationship with my husband Aqeel changed its status as a couple to just friends and to term it simply would be to state that we are 'Happily Separated'," they said.
