Shikhar Dhawan and Aesha Mukherji get divorced; part ways after eight years of marriage

Dhawan
and
Aesha
Mukherji
has
parted
ways
after
being
married
for
eight
years
and
the
news
of
their
divorce
was
confirmed
by
an
emotional
post
by
the
latter.
Aesha
took
to
social
media
to
reveal
the
news
as
her
profile
with
the
name
‘Ayesha
Dhawan’ was
deleted
from
the
social
media
site.

The
Delhi
Capitals’
opener
is
yet
to
confirm
the
news
himself.
Dhawan
and
Aesha
had
tied
the
knot
on
October
30,
2012.

In
an
emotional
note,
Aesha
wrote,
“Funny
how
words
can
have
such
powerful
meanings
and
associations.
I
experienced
this
first
hand
as
a
divorcee.
The
first
time
I
went
through
a
divorce
I
was
soooooooo
fu@kn
scared.
I
felt
like
I
had
failed
and
I
was
doing
something
so
wrong
at
that
time.
⠀
“I
felt
as
if
I
had
let
everyone
down
and
even
felt
selfish.
I
felt
that
I
was
letting
my
parents
down,
I
felt
that
I
was
letting
my
children
down
and
even
to
some
extent
I
felt
as
if
I
was
letting
God
down.
Divorce
was
such
a
dirty
word.
⠀
“So
now
imagine,
I
have
to
go
through
it
a
second
time.
Woooahhhhhh.
That
is
terrifying.
Being
divorced
once
before
already,
felt
like
I
had
more
at
stake
the
second
time
round.
I
had
more
to
prove.
So
when
my
second
marriage
broke
down
it
was
really
scary.
All
the
feelings
I
felt
when
I
went
through
it
the
first
time
came
flooding
in.
Fear,
failure
and
disappointment
x
100.
What
does
this
mean
for
me?
How
does
this
define
me
and
my
relationship
to
marriage,” Aesha
wrote
on
her
post.

As
Dhawan
struggles
in
his
personal
life,
the
India
opener
is
looking
to
seal
a
spot
in
India’s
T20
World
Cup
squad.
