Why are Fahmaan Khan and Sumbul Touqeer not friends?

When asked why he is no longer friends with Sumbul Touqeer, Fahmaan Khan says, "Cheeze ho jaati hai yaar. When you move out of the show and start doing things in your life, you don't have time as such. This is a topic that brings in many weird comments from the people."

He explains how, on social media, he is always questioned for talking about Sumbul. Further, Fahmaan Khan shares, "For me, it's very important to stay the way I am. I think me and her are connected to each other. We want the best for each other, but circumstances are such that we do not want to stay in touch at this point."

Fahmaan Khan talks about bond with former friend:

He continues, "For me, I don't care as much what the world has to think about my personal life. I believe this is also connected to the audience. There's a solo stance that keeps happening that has made the drift a bigger aspect than it already is. Itna kuch hai nahi. Mei kitne logo ke sath kaam kar chuka hu, kabhi kabhi milte hai, baat karte hai."

The Krishna Mohini actor elaborates, "This is because of the fact that they thought we were dating and they loved the Jodi so much that this moving away is become so much of a big deal. Otherwise, it isn't. It's how the world works. I think our industry works like this."

Fahmaan even mentions "not missing" his friendship with Sumbul Touqeer. He shares how it still hurts but says, "When someone dies, you move on in life; here she is alive, and there's no stress. Sometimes, we will cross paths."
