Reena Roy marked her acting debut at the young age of 15 with Zaroorat which released in 1972. She went on to rule the silver screen in the 70s and 80s. At the peak of her career, the actress quit acting and tied the knot with famous Pakistani cricketer Mohsin Khan. The couple got married in 1983. Following which, Reena moved to Pakistan.
Although Reena and Mohsin were blessed with a baby girl, they soon parted ways and Reena returned to India in 1992. Recently, Mohsin Khan broke his silence on their separation. He told a news channel in a recent interview. “I have no regrets. I had married a human being, I didn’t see who she was or where she was from. But I had decided that I want to stay in Pakistan… Pakistan is our identity. I never watched any of her films before our wedding, no one believes this. If I was leaving home and there was an Amitabh Bachchan scene going on, I would probably stop and watch, but otherwise I have never watched films. And I was never impressed by beauty, I liked a good human being.”
