Hansika’s Divorce and Mental Health Journey
Actor Hansika Motwani was granted a divorce by mutual consent on March 11 this year by a family court in Mumbai after 3 years of marriage with Sohael Khaturiya . In a recent chat with Hauterrfly, the actor spoke about her separation and recalled how her parents and brother supported her through a “dark phase”.
Talking about taking therapy, Hansika revealed that she has been focusing on her mental health for the last two years. She said, “I was in a ver dark space and didn’t understand mental health. A friend picked me up during my dark phase and said let’s try therapy. After that, it’s been two years and it has helped me, guided me, showed me how to be a better person. Taught me how to handle situations that I didn’t know how to.” She added that therapy taught her how to deal with anxiety.
Therapy as a Healing Tool
Hansika further stated that, to this day, no one knows what truly happened between her and her ex-husband. She revealed that she has no regrets about her decision and would never clarify the details, as it no longer matters to her.
In 2025, Hansika deleted her wedding photos and pictures with Sohael from Instagram, fuelling separation rumours. According to reports, their families reportedly made several attempts to reconcile them. However, they eventually decided to part ways.
Moving Forward: New Projects and Priorities
Hansika’s lawyer told NDTV, “It is pertinent to clarify that our client has made no claims whatsoever for alimony or maintenance, as her sole intention was to bring a dignified and peaceful closure to the marriage. Our client now wishes to move forward with her life and professional commitments.”
She will next be seen in the Prime Video original series Gully. Helmed by Praveen Sattaru, the show also stars Sudheer Babu, JD Chakravarthy, Shraddha Srinath and Prince, among others. The release date of the series is yet to be announced.
Hansika is now focused on her mental well-being and career. Her role in the upcoming web series ‘Gully’ marks a new chapter as she moves forward from the divorce, embracing her future and professional commitments.
