What Rohman wrote

Sharing a black-and-white picture of them together, where Rohman held Sushmita close, he left a long note in the caption. The note began, “Seven years today. Some stories outgrow their titles, but never their meaning!! I taught you chess; you now beat me without mercy. You taught me to swim; you dragged a water-phobic soul into the deep end(emotionally and literally). And how can I not thank you for giving me the best haircuts?”

‘We found a bond that outlived labels’

He continued, “We swapped roles, fears, and strengths, and somewhere between checkmates and deep ends, we found a bond that outlived labels. Not lovers, not strangers, something softer, rarer !!! You were once my safe place & somehow, still are!!!! Grateful for the love we had & the quiet friendship that stayed @sushmitasen47.”

Reacting to the post, a user commented: “Are they back together? This is such a beautiful post. God bless.” A second fan said, “Beautifully put. This is love in its purest form.” A comment read, “In this world where people cant stop blaming and defaming ex partner you have shown a new positive outlook and perspective! God Bless!”

He also bonded with her family, and often featured in her Instagram posts featuring her daughters, Alisah and Renee.
