Kirti Kulhari announces separation with husband Saahil Sehgal: 'Not on paper, but in life'

Actor Kirti Kulhari, who was last seen in the movie, The Girl on the Train, took to Instagram on Thursday morning and announced that she has separated from her husband Saahil. She shared a lengthy note and expressed that she's in a good place and that she hopes everyone in her life who matters to her is also in a good place now. "A simple note to let everyone know that my husband Saahil and I have decided to separate," wrote Kirti Kulhari.

She added, "Not on paper, but in life. A decision that's probably harder than the decision of being with somebody, because coming together is celebrated by everyone you love and care about. And the decision of not being with somebody brings along pain and hurt to the same people. It's not easy. Guess it's not meant to be easy but it is what it is."

Kirti continued in her note, "To all those who really care, I am in a good place and I hope everyone who matters in my life is too. Will not be commenting further on this. Upward and Onward, always." Kirti Kulhari and Saahil Sehgal had tied the knot in 2016.
