Music composer Ismail Darbar has two wives, Farzana and Ayesha. His second wife, Ayesha, was originally a Hindu named Preeti. However, to marry Ismail, Preeti embraced Islam. In a recent interview with Vicky Lalwani, the music composer addressed whether his second wife was forced to convert to Islam. He stated, “She converted because she wanted to. There was no pressure from my side.”
Denying allegations of infidelity, Ismail shared, “After an argument with Farzana, I called Ayesha, and we went for a drive. After an hour, I stopped the car and asked her to marry me. She said yes. To be honest, I had started developing feelings for her. She admired my work and became attached to me after our long conversations.”
Ismail also revealed how Ayesha left the glamour industry for him and took care of the family. “She dresses me even today, she ties my shoelaces. She left her glamour career behind for our children,” Darbar said.
Speaking about how his kids reacted to his second marriage, Ismail said, “They understood the situation and never judged me. I’m proud of how they’ve handled everything.”
### Ismail Darbar Faces Backlash on Social Media
Meanwhile, Ismail Darbar is facing criticism on social media over his remarks about daughter-in-law Gauahar Khan. During the same interview, he commented, “I come from a backward family. We used to turn away whenever a sensuous type of scene came in a movie. This happens in our house even today. Gauahar is a part of our family now, and we are responsible for her reputation. But I can’t tell her not to work; that right belongs only to Zaid. So, I don’t indulge in activities that might bother me.”
He added, “I’m not one to mince my words. I know that I will not be able to tolerate what I see, and if I am not able to tolerate what I see, I will confront them.”
