Actor-couple Amruta Khanvilkar and Himanshu Malhotra are reportedly living separately, nearly 11 years after their marriage. According to a report by The Times of India, the couple has been staying in different homes for the past one-and-a-half years. However, despite the separate living arrangements, there has been no official confirmation of a separation or divorce, it was reported that the two continue to share a cordial relationship.
According to the report by TOI, the couple has been living under separate roofs for approximately 18 months. While the development has naturally sparked speculation about trouble in their marriage, sources close to the actors insist that there has been no discussion of an official split. Instead, they continue to maintain mutual respect and cordiality despite choosing to live separately.
The report has surprised fans, especially since both actors have largely kept their personal lives away from the spotlight. Neither Amruta nor Himanshu has publicly addressed the reports or commented on the current status of their marriage.
Interestingly, Amruta had previously spoken about not living with Himanshu at his family home, explaining that the arrangement stemmed from practical reasons rather than marital discord. She had shared that Himanshu preferred staying with his mother, while her work commitments often kept her elsewhere, making separate residences a matter of convenience. The duo were last seen together onscreen, in couples dance reality show Nach Baliye 7.
In an earlier report, Himanshu had also revealed that the couple consciously chose not to work together on acting projects. He explained that they preferred keeping their personal and professional lives separate, believing it helped maintain balance in their relationship. Although they collaborated successfully on Nach Baliye, they felt acting together on a daily basis might blur the boundaries between work and home.
Amruta and Himanshu tied the knot in January 2015 after dating for several years. Over the years, they became one of the most loved celebrity couples, winning hearts with their chemistry both on and off screen. They also emerged as winners of the dance reality show Nach Baliye 7, which further cemented their popularity among fans.
Despite the latest reports, there is no indication of legal proceedings or an official announcement regarding their relationship. For now, the couple has remained silent, leaving fans waiting for a statement from either Amruta or Himanshu. Until then, the reports remain limited to the revelation that they have been living separately while continuing to stay on amicable terms.
