Sharing some unseen photos, he wrote, “Happy birthday @shibaniakhtar… thank you for everything you are .. a bright light, a cool breeze, a cozy Sunday, a needle pointing north, a warm hug and a lot more… Here’s wishing you a year filled with everything your heart desires. Love you loads.”
Farhan tied the knot with the actress-singer in 2022 in a private ceremony attended by close family and friends.
His first marriage was to hairstylist Adhuna Bhabani in 2000. After being together for 17 years, the two parted ways in 2016, with their divorce finalised in 2017. They have two daughters, Shakya and Akira. Even after his remarriage, he shares a close bond with his daughters.
Work Front
Farhan is now preparing for his much-awaited comeback with 120 Bahadur, arriving six years after his last release.
The film, inspired by the heroic 1962 Battle of Rezang La, honours the sacrifice of Param Vir Chakra recipient Major Shaitan Singh Bhati. Shot across Ladakh, Rajasthan, and Mumbai, the war drama captures both the grandeur of the landscapes and the grim reality of combat with authenticity and scale.
Directed by Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan (Excel Entertainment), and Amit Chandrra (Trigger Happy Studios), 120 Bahadur is slated for release on November 21, 2025.
