Last year in January, Farhan and Adhuna announced their split, requesting privacy. They released a joint statement that read: "This is to announce that we, Adhuna and Farhan, have mutually and amicably decided to separate. Our children remain our priority and it is immensely important to us, as responsible parents, that they be protected from unwarranted speculation and public glare. We sincerely request that we are given the privacy that is required at this time to move forward in a dignified manner".

Ever since the split, there has been lot of speculations regarding Farhan's relationships. He is being linked with his co-actor Shraddha Kapoor.
