“I have been rejected too, I have also cried” – Shamoon Abbasi

Shamoon Abbasi is someone who is unfortunately known more for his failed marriages than anything else. Every time people discuss him it is mostly because of his failed marriages and not because of everything that he has done in his career. Shamoon Abbasi shared in Nadia Khan’s Morning Show today how it made him feel like when people passed comments which were hurtful and other things which suggest that he is a bad person. He said,

“I am not a hypocrite, I believe in having honest relationships. I marry the girls I wanted in my life, I did not have affairs. I can also have relationships outside marriage but I have been very conscious that being a Muslim it is wrong to live with a girl without being married to her. People have one wife and 13 girlfriends and that is okay with people but a person whose marriages have failed people judge them. Even if there is a picture of me with my co-star or friend people pass degrading comments which is upsetting but I don’t let it get to me.”

Shamoon said that somehow people always think that it must have been the man’s fault when that is not always the case. He said,

“I have also been rejected by my wives, women left me too. Why do people take it for granted that the man has to be at fault? I have cried and begged my wives not to leave me but they left me any way. I have been hurt and I have been rejected. Thankfully I have fans who love for my work and there is only a selected group of people on social media who are obsessed with marriages and divorces, that is all they want to talk about.”

Talking about why all his relationships failed, he said,

“In all my 3 marriages, I realized that women do not like everything to go steady. When everything is going right, they want that there should be some fluctuation. I felt like I needed someone who would be willing to change for me but women want me to change, they want a saint. I do not cheat, I do not gamble but I am not perfect either and I needed someone who would accept me for who I am.”
