Bollywood stars Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor are one of the most popular couples in Bollywood. They have been together for over 15 years, and the couple is often snapped spending quality time and enjoying their togetherness. But there was a time when Saif Ali Khan found himself trapped and needed to find himself in an impossible marriage with Amrita Singh.
The actor married Amrita Singh in 1991, and after 13 years of marriage, they parted ways in 2004, citing ‘incompatibility’ as the reason. While many stories paved their way on the internet regarding their divorce, the two always remained tight-lipped over the issue.
In an old interview with The Telegraph, Saif spoke about his equation with Amrita Singh, the alimony he had to pay, his Swiss girlfriend Rosa, and his love for his children. He began by saying that he and his wife had gone their separate ways. “But why am I being constantly reminded of how terrible a husband I was and how awful a father I am? I have my son Ibrahim’s photograph in my wallet. Each time I look at it, I feel like crying. I miss my daughter Sarah all the time,” he said.
