There was ruckus in the house

It was justified to break up. Because she had become the mother of two children – Farhan Akhtar and Zoya Akhtar. Honey Irani was getting worried thinking that what will happen to the children when they come to know about the father’s affair? How will he react if he sees a fight between parents? Honey Irani had said about that difficult phase that there would only be fights between her and Javed Akhtar. The love between them was over. In the words of Honey Irani, ‘There were a lot of fights. A very bad scene used to happen. But we used to take care that whenever such a situation happened, our children were not around. I realized that there is no point in being with a man who doesn’t love me anymore. That’s why I told him please go.

This is how the children were told about divorce

Now it was the turn of the children to tell. Javed Akhtar said that he would not be able to tell the children about this. This difficult task was also done by Honey Irani. He told Farhan and Zoya that your father is not leaving me because of both of you. They are leaving because we do not get along. Javed Akhtar and Honey Irani got divorced in 1984-85 and during that time he married Shabana Azmi.
