However, the actor isn't working on a lot of projects of late. In 2019, Abhay Deol revealed why he has been working on fewer projects. He told Mid-Day, 'No one is giving me any work. The kind of content I want to be part of, is hardly made. At the same time, I have not closed myself to anything. As long as it excites me, I am game for it." 'It is a choice I have made. The kind of stories I like often comes from debutant directors. So, to ensure that the film sees the light of day is a long process in itself," Abhay added. He further told the newspaper, 'I haven't bagged awards or made any landmark project, so there won't be much to celebrate. If you go against the mainstream narrative, you do not get the [desired] visibility." First Published:

Kalki Koechlin opens up on attending ex-husband Anurag Kashyap's daughter Aaliyah's wedding: ‘We have both moved on in our lives'
When actor Kalki Koechlin attended the wedding of Aaliyah Kashyap, daughter of her ex-husband, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap , many were surprised. But for Kalki, it felt natural. In a recent chat, she opened up about why she chose to be there and how her bond with Aaliyah has remained strong over the years despite her split with Anurag. Kalki-Anurag tied knot in 2011 and parted ways in 2015 Kalki and Anurag met while working on the cult hit film 'DevD'. They tied the knot in 2011, but after four years of marriage, the couple parted ways in 2015. Their split was peaceful, but as Kalki recently revealed, it didn't mean cutting off everyone they had known together. In a recent interview on the YouTube channel Aleena Dissects, Kalki explained, 'So much time has passed. We have both moved on in our lives.' Aaliyah's wedding and a heartfelt note Anurag's daughter from his first marriage with film editor Aarti Bajaj, Aaliyah Kashyap, married Shane Gregoire in December 2024. Among the friends and family celebrating the wedding was Kalki. Aaliyah was only 10 years old when her father married Kalki, and the bond formed during those years has clearly stayed strong. After the wedding, Kalki took to social media to post a sweet message for the newlyweds. She ended the note with a typical Bollywood touch, 'Wish you guys all the 'ishq, pyaar and mohabbat' in the world (like the theme of a thousand Bollywood films).' Aaliyah responded with: 'Love you so much!!!' 'You don't just cut off everyone' While some might find it unusual to stay close to the family of an ex, Kalki said it's quite the opposite, especially in the film world. She shared in the same chat, 'It's just not that one person you know. It's all the people around them as well, especially in our industry. You don't suddenly cut links with all those people. There are 300-400 new people you know because of this partner you were with for six years. So, obviously, those ties are not suddenly going to disappear, so we will be in touch.' 'Aaliyah is a part of my life' Kalki spoke openly about how her relationship with Aaliyah remained unaffected by her divorce from Anurag. She said, 'And Aaliyah is a part of those people that have been in my life because of Anurag. That's the wonderful thing you get out of breaking up that there is a whole network of other people you have met because of that person. And even if you can't talk to that person for some time, which happened after we broke up, we did have to give ourselves some boundaries and be like 'I don't want to see you for some time' but the others, I kept seeing and that's normal, I think.'

Kalki Koechlin on attending ex-husband Anurag Kashyap's daughter's wedding: ‘We've moved on, Aaliyah is a part of my life'
Film director Anurag Kashyap and actor Kalki Koechlin got married in 2011, shortly after they first collaborated on his film DevD. But, after a four-year marriage, the couple parted ways in 2015. Last year, when Anurag's daughter from his first marriage with Aarti Bajaj, Aaliyah Kashyap, got married to Shane Gregoire, Kalki was one of the attendees. In a recent interview, Kalki said that while one could temporarily cut ties with their former partner, it is not possible to eliminate all the other people who you met through them, and for her, Aaliyah was one of those people. Aaliyah was 10 when her father and Kalki got married. Talking to the YouTube channel Aleena Dissects, Kalki shared, 'So much time has passed. We have both moved on in our lives.' She then said that even though she wasn't with Anurag anymore, she couldn't stop talking to all the people they knew mutually. 'It's just not that one person you know. It's all the people around them as well, especially in our industry. You don't suddenly cut links with all those people. There are 300-400 new people you know because of this partner you were with for six years. So, obviously, those ties are not suddenly going to disappear, so we will be in touch,' she said. She then spoke about Aaliyah and shared, 'And Aaliyah is a part of those people that have been in my life because of Anurag.

And even if you can't talk to that person for some time, which happened after we broke up, we did have to give ourselves some boundaries and be like 'I don't want to see you for some time' but the others, I kept seeing and that's normal, I think.'

Aaliyah responded to this as she wrote, 'Love you so much!!!' Kalki also attended Aaliyah's engagement in 2023 and shared with India Today, 'Aaliyah is very cute with my daughter. They really have kind of a playful thing. So basically, my daughter thinks Aaliyah is a real princess. So she's in awe of her. It's good to have one more babysitter around.' Kalki is now married to Guy Hershberg and they have a five-year-old daughter named Sappho.
