​Urmila Matondkar and Mohsin Akhtar Mir file for divorce: Happy photos from their 8 year marriage​

Bollywood actress Urmila Matondkar and her businessman husband Mohsin Akhtar Mir have reportedly filed for divorce after eight years of marriage. The news came as a surprise to fans of the 'Rangeela' actress, as the couple has often been seen posting happy photos from their life together since tying the knot in 2016. Here’s a closer look at their relationship, from their fairytale wedding to their shocking decision to pull the plug on their marriage and part ways.

After eight years of marriage, Urmila Matondkar has taken the difficult decision of filing for divorce from her husband, Mohsin Akhtar Mir. A source revealed to Hindustan Times that the decision was not mutual, making the separation even more complex.

Urmila and Mohsin’s love story began far from the spotlight, with the couple maintaining a relatively private relationship. The two met through mutual friends, and despite their 10-year age difference, love blossomed and the two eventually wed in a private ceremony at the actress' home in 2016. When asked about keeping her marriage a private affair, she said, "I don't like to talk about my personal life. I have always been a reclusive actor, who has believed in letting my work speak for itself."

The couple exchanged vows in 2016 in a small, intimate ceremony at Urmila’s Mumbai residence. With only close friends and family in attendance, including designer Manish Malhotra, the event was a quiet yet beautiful affair. The actress posted this romantic pic with her hubby saying, "When we visited the place we both find extremely spiritual n soulful Harmandir Sahib, Golden temple to seek blessings."

Urmila and Mohsin’s marriage initially attracted attention due to their 10-year age difference. However, the couple never let the age gap define their relationship. The actress and her businessman hubby often took to social to share loved-up photos from their quiet life with their pet pooches.

ETimes reported that Urmila filed for divorce about 4 months ago. While the exact reason for the divorce remains under wraps, an anonymous source claimed that the split was not a 'mutual' decision. Going by their latest posts, the actress has been spending her time home with her pet pooches, while Mohsin has been spending his time in Kashmir.

Despite the differences, Urmila and Mohsin’s relationship was often described as one built on mutual respect. The actress has had no qualms publically calling out haters and those trolling her husband over their religious beliefs. The actress had said, "He was called a terrorist, a Pakistani. I mean there is a limit to where it should go…"

As Urmila Matondkar moves forward with her divorce, she has returned to the public eye and candidly shared her career plans with Bombay Times, saying, "I can feel the calling to get back to the big screen or on OTT." Mohsin, on the other hand, continues to manage his business ventures, staying away from the limelight.
