'This year brought lessons I didn't ask for'; Hansika shares cryptic note amid divorce rumours

Hansika Motwani is a popular actress among cinema lovers. Recently, there were rumours that she is heading for a divorce from her husband Sohael Khaturiya. The discussion grew stronger after she removed her wedding videos and related posts from social media.

Hansika and Sohael tied the knot in December 2022, with their wedding celebrations documented in a six-episode series on Disney+ Hotstar. Hansika celebrated her 34th birthday recently. What caught fans’ attention was the Instagram story she shared that day. In it, she wrote that this year had taught her some unexpected lessons.

“Feeling humbled and full of gratitude. Wrapped in love, topped with cake, and thankful for every little moment. This year brought lessons I didn't ask for... and strength I didn't know I had. Heart's full. Phone's full. Soul's at peace. Thank you for the birthday magic,” Hansika wrote.

Hansika has not posted anything new on social media since July 18, 2025. Her absence from social media and the deletion of most posts with Sohael have led many to believe there are issues in their marriage. In 2022, their wedding became big news after Sohael proposed to Hansika under the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

The two were friends long before their wedding. Sohael was earlier married to Hansika’s close friend, Rinky Bajaj, and has been a long-time friend of Hansika’s brother. After marriage, Hansika had moved from her mother’s apartment to live with Sohael. However, rumours now suggest that differences have emerged, prompting her to move back in with her mother.
