Throwback: When Richa Chadha called Urmila Matondkar a 'hot khaala' when she came to meet her daughter: pic inside

The news of Urmila Matondkar's divorce from Mir has come as a suprise for many, since the couple were married for 8 long years, and were never in the news for any dispute of any kind. According to sources from a Mumbai court, Urmila filed for divorce around four months ago, and reports suggest that the separation is not amicable.

While Mir was hardly seen in the public eye, Urmila has been fairly active off-screen, seen at festivals and friends' houses.Around two months back, she was seen visiting Richa Chadha's house to meet her newborn daughter. Richa later shared pics of the same, that included Dia Mirza, Tanvi Azmi, Shabana Azmi and Richa's husband Ali Fazal too.
Sharing the same, Richa wrote, "An evening drenched in rain and love, with piping hot khaalas/maasik and sabudana wadas . I think the tea was too cold for @tanveazmi apologies! How lucky is this little girl to be blessed and touched by the most loving and the very best! How happy is Guddu Pandit! How pampered is the mom! Thank the heavens for bonds like these @urmilamatondkarofficial @azmishabana18 @diamirzaofficial !

Coming back to Mir, Mohsin Akhtar Mir is a Kashmiri businessman and model who gained recognition in the Indian entertainment industry through his marriage to Urmila Matondkar. Born and raised in Kashmir, Mohsin moved to Mumbai at the age of 21 with aspirations of becoming an actor. After bagging the second runner-up trophy in the Mr India competition in 2007, he initially appeared in a commercial alongside Preity Zinta, which helped him gain visibility in the entertainment world.
In 2009, Mohsin made his acting debut in the film It's A Man's World, followed by a short role in Zoya Akhtar’s Luck By Chance, where he played a rival to Farhan Akhtar's character. Despite his efforts, his acting career did not gain momentum, leading him to focus towards entrepreneurship. He started a Kashmiri embroidery business and is currently associated with Manish Malhotra's label, showcasing the rich heritage of Kashmiri craftsmanship.

Mohsin's relationship with Urmila brought him into the limelight. The couple first met at designer Manish Malhotra's niece Riddhi Malhotra's wedding in 2014, and their bond deepened over shared interests and values despite a 10-year age difference. They married in a private ceremony on February 4, 2016, surrounded by close family and friends.
Their inter-faith marriage, however, did not come without challenges. Urmila has spoken about the severe trolling and backlash they faced online. In a previous interview with Mojo Story, she shared her shock at the level of hate directed at Mohsin and his family. “He was called a terrorist, a Pakistani. I mean, there is a limit to where it should go… They have even infiltrated my Wikipedia page and altered my family details,” she explained.

She added, “To top it all, my husband is not only a Muslim but a Kashmiri Muslim. We both follow our religions in an equally staunch way. That gave them a bigger platform to troll me and constantly target him and his family. It was very unfortunate.”
We had earlier reached out to both Urmila and Mir for a comment, but did not receive a reply.
