Niece of actor Raza Murad, Bakhtavar Khan aka Sonam is a yesteryear actress who’s still remembered for her presence in the song Tirchi Topi Wale from Tridev. After working with celebrated Bollywood heroes like Rishi Kapoor, Mithun Chakraborty, Govinda and several others, Sonam bid adieu to cinema as she tied the knot.
She had married the director of Tridev, Rajiv Rai and the two were blessed with a son in 1992. The duo stayed in Los Angeles and Switzerland before moving back to Mumbai. But they have been staying separately since 2001. After 15 years of separation, they finally got divorced when their son turned 18 and gave a nod to their decision.
And recently, Sonam got remarried to Dr. Murali Poduval. They two had met in Puducherry and they clicked instantly. Their Nikah ceremony took place in Ooty this month in the presence of Sonam’s 23-year old son, Gaurav. Here’s a picture of the couple.
Congratulations.
