Former Bigg Boss actor and contestant Sana Khan surprised his fans when he married Surat businessman Maulana Anas Saiyad on November 20 in an intimate ceremony. While many speculated it was a hasty affair, for Sana, now Saiyad Sana Khan, marriage was not an “overnight decision”, and she had prayed for years “for a man like him.”
“Marrying Anas was not an overnight decision. I have prayed for years for a man like him in my life. What I liked the most about him is that he is ‘shareef’ (gentleman) and ‘unn mein haya hai’. He doesn’t judge, ”Sana told Bombay Times in a recent interview. When asked if social media trolls target her husband, the former actor added: “My husband is a good man and I find him handsome, maybe you don’t. I do not care “.
Sana Khan met Anas Saiyad in 2017 in Mecca and then in 2018 she contacted him to learn a few things about Islam. The two met again in 2020 and reconnected with each other.
Maulana Anas Saiyad, also an Islamic scholar, feels that he is the happiest to have the Jai Ho actor as his wife and is unaffected by what ‘narrow-minded’ people think of them as a couple.
He told BT: “I feel like I wouldn’t have been so happy if I had married someone else. Sana is not full of herself. She is personable, forgiving, and clean-hearted. I always wanted a girl who complemented and completed me. People still ask me how I married an actress, but yeh chhoti soch ke log hain. It’s my life and no one should comment on it. People are free to think that we are a mismatched couple, but only we know how compatible we are. “
In October, Sana Khan announced her departure from the film industry. She made the decision to “serve humanity and follow the orders of my creator.”
