Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan and his wife Suzzane Khan filed for divorce earlier this year in Mumbai's Bandra family court, putting a full stop to their 17-year long (including four years of courtship) relationship.
The announcement raised several speculations about the possible reasons behind the separation. Suzzane Khan has reportedly demanded Rs 400 crore ($25 million) alimony after the two filed their case.
