Seema Sajdeh has publicly discussed her amicable divorce from actor Sohail Khan, describing the decision to part ways as thoughtful and focused on the well-being of their family. Married in 1998, the couple ended their 24-year marriage in 2022 and share two sons, Nirvaan and Yohaan. In a chat with Usha Kakade Productions, Seema explained that as they grew older, both she and Sohail changed as individuals and eventually realised they were better as friends than as husband and wife.

“We were both very young when we got married. I was just 22. As we grew older, we grew in different directions. Our thoughts changed. Eventually, we realised we were better friends than husband and wife," she said.

“It was better to separate than to fight every day. We didn't want to spoil the environment at home. Khit-pit se acha hai we separated. We separated amicably, but only as husband and wife. Till date, we are a family. He is the father of my children, and that can never change," she shared.

The decision to separate was reached after years of careful thought, with the happiness of their children playing a central role in the process. “No woman fantasises about or manifests divorce. I did go into depression. And my kids must have too. It took us several years to reach this conclusion. We were waiting for the right time, especially for our children," she shared.

“That's very unfair. A relationship involves two people. Both are responsible for making it work, or not. We never took this decision lightly. We largely took it keeping our children in mind. We were kids when we got married, and it wasn't anyone's fault," she said.

Discussing the emotional impact of the divorce, Seema candidly acknowledged that the period was challenging. She admitted to experiencing loneliness and going through phases of depression as she adjusted to life as a single parent.

“I was scared of being lonely. I didn't know anything about mobile bills, banking or finances. Earlier, my father handled these things and after marriage, Sohail did," she said.

“Suddenly, I had to learn about life insurance, medical insurance, everything. As a single woman, I now have to focus more on my business, pay my own bills and take care of my kids. Divorce taught me time management as we both get equal time with our kids," she concluded.
