'Satyameva Jayate 2' actor Harsh Chhaya on his divorce with Shefali Shah: 'It's a closed chapter, the separation was…'

Shefali Shah and Harsh Chhaya were once married to each other before going their separate ways. While speaking to Sidharth Kanan, the Satyameva Jayate 2 actor recalled the time and said, “The separation was pretty tough. Itni puraani kahani hai. Itna samay beet gaya hai…bees pachees saal ho gaye hain. For me, it is a closed chapter.”

He added, “No, we are not friends. I don’t have an issue talking to her, so if we bump into each other, I wouldn’t get uncomfortable.”

In an another interview with Hindustan Times, Harsh said he kind of sensed his marriage world end with the actress. “The separation didn’t take me by surprise. I had seen it coming for almost eight months. still look back at it very pragmatically. Two people met, fell in love, got married and parted ways. One couldn’t do anything about it. I felt it was better to separate than live a life where you don’t know where your marriage is going. After feeling bad and gathering enough sympathy for myself, I finally got out of it in six months.”
