Actress and filmmaker Divya Khosla Kumar has always been admired for her creativity and versatility. Married to music baron Bhushan Kumar, the head of T-Series, her journey in Bollywood took an interesting turn after tying the knot. Recently, the actress revealed candid details about how her career choices were shaped by her marriage and her family’s decisions.

Let us tell you that Divya married Bhushan Kumar on February 13, 2005, at the Vaishno Devi temple, when she was just 21 years old. A few years later, she welcomed her son Ruhaan in 2011. However, despite being at the peak of her acting career with films like Ab Tumhare Hawale Sanam, her path took a detour. Divya disclosed in Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa’s podcast that her marriage was finalized even before the release of the film.

Afterward, her family made it clear that she could no longer pursue acting. “I have been very creative since childhood, but my family was not comfortable with me continuing as an actress after marriage. That’s when I decided to channel my creativity into other aspects of filmmaking,” Divya said during the podcast. Determined not to let her passion fade, Divya began learning cinematography and editing while completing her studies.

She soon stepped behind the camera and directed her first music video for Sonu Nigam’s father, Agam Nigam. To her delight, the video became a blockbuster hit, giving her the confidence to explore directing and filmmaking further. Interestingly, a few years ago, rumors about Divya and Bhushan Kumar’s divorce started making headlines after she dropped her husband’s surname from her social media profiles. The gossip mill was quick to speculate on trouble in paradise, but Bhushan later clarified that it was done on an astrologer’s advice, putting an end to the chatter.
