Zarina Wahab says husband Aditya Pancholi’s affairs don’t bother her: ‘Many men have affairs and run their family, I don’t want to suffer’

Post their marriage, there were several news of the actor having affairs with his co-stars and others in the industry, including a relationship with actor Kangana Ranaut. While Zarina agreed that Aditya often strayed out of marraige, she has often dismissed that it ever made her feel bad.

“People think I am very stressed. They simply assume that ‘she must be unhappy because Aditya is seeing this and that girl’ nobody says, ‘Yeh ladki dekh rahi hai inko’.” Zarina claimed it is wrong to blame the married man but not the girl who is in a relationship with him. “That’s wrong. This is all a phase which comes and goes. I never take these phases seriously as I know he will never get serious with anyone else as he loves me a lot.”

When asked if these rumours never gave her a bad day. Zareena quickly responded, “I used to feel a little bad when I used to read affair rumours, but then I also laughed at them. I don’t care what he does outside, but when he enters the house, he is an excellent father and husband. And that’s all matters to me. I would have felt bad if only he brought his affairs home. A lot of men have affairs and still run a family. If I will start taking these things too seriously, and start fighting over it then I will suffer. I don’t want to suffer, I love myself.”

She clarified that she is not with the actor for any kind of dependency but love. “I am very independent. Even If I had to live alone, I have money and properties in my name, but in reality I never thought of leaving him. We never discussed this.”

Previously, in an interview with Lehren Retro, Zarina said she was always prepared for her husband to have affairs post marriage. She said, “I was always aware of Nirmal (Aditya’s real name)’s affairs, but I never questioned him. I only cared about how he treated me when he was home. I ignored asking him questions because it would have made him fearless. I was completely prepared for him to have affairs.”

Aditya Pancholi was all over the news for having an extramarital affair with Kabir Bedi’s daughter, Pooja Bedi. He was also rumoured to be dating actress Kangana Ranaut in the initial days of her career.

Zarina and Aditya married in 1986. They are parents to a son, Sooraj Pancholi  and a daughter, Sana Pancholi.
