Javed Akhtar, who was first married to screenwriter Honey Irani, tied the knot with Shabana Azmi in 1984. Their relationship has often been in the public eye.

Just last month, Azmi delighted her social media followers with another glimpse into her personal life; a fun-filled meet-up with her close friends from the film industry.

On the professional front, Shabana Azmi last appeared in the crime thriller ‘Dabba Cartel’, which premiered on Netflix on February 28. Her career, spanning over five decades and more than 160 films, is a mix of mainstream and parallel cinema. Known for her nuanced performances, she made her debut in 1974 with ‘Ankur’.
