She said: “I used to feel a little bad when I read rumors of affairs, but then I laughed at them too. I don’t care what he does outside, but when he comes home, he’s a great father and husband. And that’s all I care about. I would have felt bad if he was the only one who carried his affairs at home. If I take all these things too seriously and struggle, I will suffer. I don’t want to suffer, I love myself.”He also addressed the widespread perception that he has been unhappy about his marriage.

Instead, she chose to judge her marriage by the way he treated her and her family at home.Speaking to Lehren Radio in 2024, Zarina said: “I was always aware of Nirmal’s (Aditya’s real name) affairs, but I never asked him. I was only concerned about how he treated me when he was at home. I didn’t bother to ask him questions because he would have done it without fear. I was completely prepared for him to have affairs.”For those unaware of their journey, Zarina and Aditya first crossed paths while working together in the film Kalank Ka Tika.
