'Wasn't Meant To Be': Zayed Khan On Hrithik Roshan–Sussanne Khan Split; Calls Saba, Arslan 'Amazing Partners'

Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan, who once were the industry’s power couple, parted ways in 2014 after 14 years of marriage, marking the end of a significant chapter in their lives. Since then, they have redefined what it means to maintain a mature and evolved relationship post-divorce. Despite parting ways, Hrithik and Sussanne have consistently prioritized mutual respect, offered support to each other during challenging times, and embraced co-parenting their two sons with unwavering commitment. Recently, Sussanne’s brother, Zayed Khan, spoke candidly in an interview about their journey, reflecting on their divorce and the new chapters they have both embarked upon with their respective partners, Saba Azad and Arslan Goni.

about Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan’s divorce

While speaking to Zoom, Zayed Khan reflected that sometimes relationships simply aren’t meant to last, and holding on to something that isn’t working only causes pain for both parties. He said, “It wasn’t meant to be. And it would be even worse if you try to hold on to something that isn’t—both people suffer. For what? I mean, you have your children to look forward to, to participate in their lives, to witness the moments of them growing up, turning into such young, wonderful gentlemen. So that became the focus.”

The Main Hoon Na actor added that both families embraced Hrithik and Sussanne’s decision, choosing to support a brighter future rather than dwell on the pain of the present. He continued, “It’s done, it’s finished. Now let’s focus on this, and go find your version of happiness for yourself. We are not the typical, sort of society-pressure-driven family. We are a little more aware, a little more educated about certain things. And I know, by and large, people find it very bizarre. Some people are young, some people themselves are unhappy, some people just don’t understand it, and that’s okay. It’s fine.”

Hrithik is currently dating Saba Azad, while Sussanne is with Arslani Goni. They have been in a relationship for quite some time now. Zayed shared that he shares a good bond with Saba and Arslan. Calling them “amazing partners”, the actor said, “I think love is a very broad word. I think the respect and care they have for each other is even more meaningful. I think they’ve got amazing partners. I’m so fond of Saba (Hrithik’s long-term girlfriend) and I think she’s such a wonderful person. I’m so fond of Arslan (Sussanne’s boyfriend), he’s like my little junior brother. And you know, life goes on.”

Hrithik and Sussanne continue to co-parent their sons, Hrehaan and Hridhaan. The entire clan, including Saba and Arslani, is often seen holidaying and celebrating special occasions together.
