Javed Akhtar’s first marriage to Honey Irani ended due to various reasons, and though he later fell in love with Shabana Azmi, he wasn’t ready to settle down. Their close friend, Annu Kapoor, shared a fascinating tale about how he played matchmaker for the couple in an interview with ANI.
One night in 1984, after a few drinks, Annu asked Shabana why they hadn’t tied the knot yet. She hesitated, as Javed wasn’t prepared to commit, but Kapoor urged her to take the plunge.
When the lyricist remained unsure, he took matters into his own hands, convincing him to marry. Without wasting time, he drove to a mosque in Bandra, arranged for the maulvi, and invited Shabana’s mother and friends like Boney Kapoor. After the impromptu wedding, the group celebrated the occasion, continuing the fun until 4 a.m.
Javed and Honey Irani have two children, Farhan Akhtar and Zoya Akhtar. Shabana Azmi shares a warm and cordial relationship with both the kids and even with Honey.
