**New Delhi:** In a surprising turn of events, Bollywood actress Urmila Matondkar has filed for divorce from her husband, Mohsin Akhtar Mir, after eight years of marriage. The news comes amidst a string of high-profile divorces in the entertainment industry, including Natasha Stankovic and Hardik Pandya, and Esha Deol.
Sources close to the couple revealed that the decision to divorce was made after much contemplation and discussion. While the exact reason behind the split remains undisclosed, reports suggest the divorce may not be amicable.
The “Rangeela” actress has remained tight-lipped about the divorce, choosing not to publicly comment on the matter. Information regarding the divorce proceedings was obtained from a source at the Mumbai court, who confirmed that the necessary paperwork has been filed and further proceedings are pending.
Adding fuel to the fire, rumors have surfaced claiming that Matondkar has unfollowed her husband on social media, while Mir continues to follow her.
The couple, who met through a mutual friend and fashion designer Manish Malhotra, tied the knot in 2016 after dating for a short period. Mir, a Kashmiri businessman and model, shifted to Mumbai at the age of 21. He made his acting debut in 2009 with the film “It’s a Man’s World,” followed by appearances in films like “Luck by Chance,” “Mumbai Mast Kalandar,” and “B.A. Pass.” He later transitioned to focus on his business ventures.
Meanwhile, Matondkar is set to make her OTT debut with the upcoming web series “Tivari.” This marks her comeback to acting after a hiatus.
