Dhawan granted divorce from wife on grounds of cruelty
Shikhar and Aesha married in 2012 and were blessed with a baby boy, Zoravar, in 2014. In his plea, Dhawan said Aesha initially vowed to live with him in India. However, due to her commitment towards her daughters from her previous marriage requiring her to stay in Australia, she could not come to live in India. Judge Harish Kumar asserted that Aesha did not choose to contest the claim. The judge also ruled that Dhawan's wife had subjected him to mental agony by compelling the Indian cricketer to live separately from his only son for years.
'I haven't had a word with him for the last 5-6 months'
Speaking to Humans of Bombay, Dhawan opened up about visiting Zoravar in Australia and spending quality time with his only son. “When I used to visit my son in Australia for a week, he used to meet me only for a few hours. I want to spend quality time with him, want him to sleep in my arms, I want to hug him tight, give him the father's love he deserves. I haven't had a word with him for the last 5-6 months,” Dhawan said.
