He then carried on, “Sorry about the silence…
when you’ve lived so long in darkness, the sunshine can feel unbearably bright at first. I’ve been flooded with so many message of love, support, and encouragement that it felt weird. Unnatural. I couldn’t absorb that much positivity, so instead I went looking for the ugly words, the hurtful ones that sound more like the Voice in my head, because that feels more familiar to me. I checked reddit (still reliable), the comments sections of news articles, wherever I could find words sharp enough to cut myself with.”
Now, his estranged wife Avantika Malik shared some quotes, which seem to be indirectly hinted towards her former husband. Reddit shared the quotes on its handle which reads, “I will judge you by the way you treat me, not by the bullshit moral characteristics, you claim to have, but don’t. -Maria Consigilio.” Another reads, “In the end, people always have a way of revealing who they are. You just have to give them space and time to do so. No mask can be worn forever.”
Fans took no time to connect the two and wondered what went wrong for the happy couple. One fan wrote, “I have empathy for her if she was harmed in the relationship or whatever but cryptic posts like this after your ex literally posted about self harm does not cast her in a good light there is a time and place for everything.” Another wrote, “i really wonder what went wrong between them, back then she used to have a small cameo in each and every one of his films cause apparently they were that much in love.”
Imran and Avantika tied the knot in 2011 and separated in 2019. They have a nine-year-old daughter called Imara Malik Khan.
