November 29, 2024: Veteran actress Zarina Wahab, who has been married to Aditya Pancholi for over three decades, has opened up about her husband’s extramarital affairs, including his alleged relationship with Kangana Ranaut. In a candid interview with Lehren Retro, Zarina reflected on her relationship with Aditya and shared her perspective on the controversies surrounding him.
Kangana Ranaut had previously accused Aditya Pancholi of physically and sexually abusing her during her early days in Bollywood. The two were also rumoured to have been involved in an affair during that time. Addressing Kangana’s allegations and their connection, Zarina revealed that the actress often visited their home, and Aditya was “very nice” to her.

In the interview, Zarina said, “I was always nice to Kangana. She often visited my home. He (Aditya) was very nice to her. I don’t know what went wrong. I just thought that time would tell, and I didn’t want to say anything.”
Kangana filed an FIR against Aditya Pancholi in 2019, accusing him of abuse. In response, Aditya filed a counter-application claiming Kangana’s lawyer had threatened to file a rape case against him.
Acknowledging Aditya’s Affairs
Zarina also discussed her approach to her husband’s extramarital relationships, admitting she was aware of them but chose not to confront him. She explained, “I was always aware of Nirmal (Aditya’s real name)’s affairs, but I never questioned him. I only cared about how he treated me when he was home. I ignored asking him questions because it would have made him fearless. I was completely prepared for him to have affairs.”
Despite the controversies, Zarina stated that Aditya was never abusive toward her and always supported her acting career, allowing her to continue working.
