One of the most abstract forms of human feelings, Love has gone beyond understanding in today’s time. We all have realized the fact that today falling in love is an easy feat but staying the same in the relationship is war by itself. The same happened with Anurag Kashyap and Kalki Koechlin. The duo filed for divorce within the span of 3 years of their marriage. The love brewing on the set of Dev D seemed to be so pure and strong that the couple decided to get married after 2 years of dating but their plan back fired quite badly and left them with a sad story of their own.
The love, between Kalki Koechlin and Anurag Kashyap, brewed on the set of Dev D back in 2008. The modern take on the classic story of Devdas captured Kalki playing the role of Chanda.
Soon, the couple started dating. But at times, Anurag got accused by his wife of having a love affair with an assistant who was much younger than time. This rumor and allegation led to his divorce from his first wife.
A few year post his divorce, Anurag made his relationship official with Kalki and decided to move in together with her. And in 2009, the couple started living together.
On April 30, 2011, after living-in for two years, the couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Ooty.
Kashyap's 15-year-old daughter, Aaliya, from his marriage with film-editor Aarti Bajaj, attended the ceremony. So did his filmaker friends Vikramaditya Motwane and Vikas Bahl and singer-lyricist-actor buddy Piyush Mishra.
The thing in their marriage went smoothly for quite a time and then waves of arguments and ugly fights started hitting their marriage life.
And being tired of all the fights, the couple decided to call it off in 2013, just 2 years after they got married. Kalki Koechlin revealed in Kareena Kapoor’s show ‘What Women Want Season 2’ that the major reasons why her marriage with Anurag did not work out were their age gap, their extremely busy schedules, and the fact that they both wanted different things in life.
Kalki was only 25 when she got married to Anurag who was 39 at that time so, things didn’t go the way they had planned. Also, there were rumours about Anurag Kashyap’s involvement with Huma Qureshi and there were endless quarrels between the two and so, in 2013 the couple officially announced: "they are taking time apart from their more than two-year-old marriage." Two years later, in 2015, they announced their legal divorce.
