Pinkie Roshan pens emotional tribute to Zarine Khan

Pinkie recently took to Instagram to pen an emotional goodbye to her friend, and recall the bond they shared despite Sussanne and Hrithik’s divorce.

“A friendship very rare. a relationship very precious. two mothers whose hearts were happy for each other and happiest when our children turned our friendship into mother of the bride and mother of the groom. Till untill destiny had its own plans,” Pinkie wrote alongside a picture of herself with Zarine.

She continued, “Our children grew apart and whilst facing their toughest phase we as mothers chose empathy and compassion over bitterness and hatred….. we got even closer as we consoled each other with tears in our eyes hugged each other comforted each other……. tried our best and we found our bond getting stronger and our friendship,,,more secure than ever….Zar i will miss you.”

In another post, Pinkie spoke about Zarine’s nature, writing, “Zarine Khan. in todays world where we all need therapy counselling but anyone who knew Zar ….she was therapy.”

Hrithik and Sussanne tied the knot in 2000 after dating for four years. They share two sons, Hrehaan and Hridaan Roshan. While they separated 11 years ago in 2014, they still remain good friends. Both Sussanne and Hrithik’s families also share a close bond.
