Renowned Pakistani actress Mahira Khan has recently taken to clarifying swirling speculations surrounding her personal life. In a heartfelt conversation hosted on Mashion’s YouTube channel, Khan debunked a prevalent pregnancy rumor and opened up about her relationship dynamics with husband Salim Karim. This discussion provided a candid glimpse into the private life of one of Pakistan’s celebrated artists.
When approached about the rumors, Mahira Khan swiftly dismissed claims of her expected motherhood by saying, “Oh, that I’m pregnant. It’s not weird, it’s just a rumor. I don’t know where they came up with it. I think it’s because I’ve put on weight, but then they also said that I’ve left a Netflix series and a major film and whatnot. But it’s not true.” This firm rebuttal put to rest the various unfounded stories that had been circulating in the media about her supposed pregnancy and professional decisions.
Furthermore, Khan revealed insights into the little nuances of her marital relationship. She expressed mixed feelings about her husband’s non-expressive nature, stating, “I hate that he’s not expressive. I tolerate that he’s not expressive.” However, she did not shy away from humorously conceding that there are idiosyncrasies within their dynamic that she admires. She laughingly mentioned the couple’s differing preferences regarding morning routines, “No, sometimes I like the music to be turned off, but he likes the music to be on all the time. It’s like the minute he wakes up, he wants the music on. I like listening to the sound of birds…I love that he tolerates the fact that I like having breakfast alone.”
Mahira Khan’s nuptials with Salim Karim were conducted in a serene ceremony away from the prying eyes of the public. The intimate wedding, situated in Pakistan over the weekend, had only close family members present. The couple had been in a relationship for a few years before their marriage was solemnized. On social media, Khan did not hold back in her display of joy as she shared endearing photographs from her wedding on Instagram. A notably touching video also surfaced, featuring significant moments of the ceremony. Her son, Azlaan, took on the heartwarming responsibility of accompanying her down the aisle.
The wedding video was particularly moving as it captured Mahira’s son, Azlaan, holding her hand and leading her towards Salim at the altar. The groom, overcome with emotion upon witnessing his bride in an exquisite powder blue lehenga, was spotted wiping away tears. A profound embrace between the newlyweds and the palpable emotion from Azlaan added to the ceremony’s sentimental depth. Moreover, a small portion of these precious moments was initially revealed by Mahira’s manager Anushay Talha Khan on Sunday, depicting the groom lifting his bride’s veil as they stood together at the altar.
In an industry where private lives often fall under merciless scrutiny, Mahira Khan’s choice to address personal rumors with transparency and humor is both refreshing and courageous. The actress not only dismissed the unfounded pregnancy claims but also shared delightful anecdotes about her marital life, endearing her further to her fans worldwide. As Khan and Karim embark on their new life together, this moment of openness will undeniably strengthen the bond between the actress and her audience, who continue to celebrate her authenticity both on-screen and off.
