Wajid Khan’s wife Kamalrukh makes a shocking revelation about the late music composer; says, “He threatened to divorce me”

Singer-composer Wajid Khan passed away on June 1 this year. Post his demise, his wife Kamalrukh opened up about her ordeal that she went through being in an inter-caste marriage. Now, in a new interview, she said that he threatened to divorce her in 2014. They had been living separately since 2014.

She told YouTuber Ujjawal Trivedi, “He was a wonderful man, a talented musician, but if there was one flaw in him, it was this: he wasn’t strong-minded. He could be easily influenced, especially in matters of faith. We used to fight about this, even after we had two kids. This was the narrative, day in and day out. The last straw was when he threatened to divorce me if I didn’t convert. This was in 2014.”

She continued, “He used to leave and stay at his mother’s house, sometimes for months on end. When he threatened to divorce me, I said ‘fine, let’s go ahead’. Even in court, I made my case about being under pressure to convert. His career was at stake, which is why this never came out in the public, but this had been going on since 2014.”

Kamalrukh also said that ‘the last few days of his life were very sad’ because he had Covid-19 and couldn’t meet his family.

Earlier, while talking about the inter-caste marriage, she penned a lengthy note and shared her experience. You can check the post here.
