    ‘Just a coincidence’: Ahsan Khan on marrying outside the industry

    Love may find its way into the most unexpected locations, and for celebrities, sometimes the heart chooses to follow a path away from the spotlight. This was the situation with actor Ahsan Khan who recently revealed that his marriage to a girl who was not part of the entertainment industry was entirely accidental.
    Ahsan Khan recently sat down with the ‘Samma Podcast’ to talk about a host of issues.

    “There are many educated, well-mannered, and family-oriented girls from good backgrounds in our industry, but their marriages have taken place outside the industry,” he observed.
    Calling it “just a coincidence” that his mind matched with a girl outside the industry, Ahsan simply said he liked her.
    Ahsan Khan married his wife Fatima Khan in 2008.

    Javed Sheikh also spoke up, saying, “Behroze went to pick Syra up from the airport when she returned from Umrah, accompanied by Zahra, who is very close to both Nooreh and Syra and spends hours with her ‘Mimi’ (the affectionate name she has for Syra).”
