Eva Grover, a well-known face in the film and TV industry, recently opened up about her troubled marriage with Aamir Khan’s stepbrother, Haider Ali Khan. In a candid interview, she described this chapter of her life as the “biggest mistake” she ever made. What makes this revelation even more surprising is that few people knew about her relationship with Haider Ali Khan. The actress also shared how superstar Salman Khan played a vital role in supporting her through this difficult phase in her life.
A Hasty Decision She Regretted Later
Eva Grover shared that her decision to marry Haider Ali Khan was rushed. The couple eloped and got married within just 18 days of meeting each other. Eva recalled that her mother had warned her against this marriage, especially because it was an interfaith relationship. But despite her mother’s concerns, Eva chose love. However, it didn’t take long for reality to set in. By the fourth day of their marriage, Eva realized that things were not as she had imagined.
Struggles Within the Marriage
The couple even had a child together, hoping it might help their relationship. But, unfortunately, Eva’s efforts to save the marriage didn’t work. She explained that despite trying everything to make things better, Haider was not mature enough to handle the responsibilities that come with marriage and parenthood. After five years, the marriage came to an end, leaving Eva to reflect on how quickly things went wrong.
Salman Khan: A Friend in Need
While she was dealing with the breakdown of her marriage, Eva was also struggling professionally. It was at this tough time that Salman Khan extended a helping hand. According to Eva, Salman not only offered emotional support but even suggested that she participate in the reality show Bigg Boss. He was confident that she would do well on the show, but Eva declined the offer because she was too overwhelmed with her personal issues to focus on her career at that time.
Career and Collaboration with Salman Khan
Despite her personal struggles, Eva Grover has had a significant career in both films and TV. She worked with Salman Khan in the popular film Ready. On television, she became a household name through shows like Kumkum: Ek Pyara Sa Bandhan, Kora Kagaz, CID, and Bade Achhe Lagte Hain. Her role in the sitcom Shararat is also fondly remembered by fans.
Though Eva describes her marriage to Haider Ali Khan as her biggest regret, she has emerged stronger, thanks in part to the support of Salman Khan and her own resilience.
