Actress Mahia Mahi has been living separately from her husband Rakib Sarkar since June last year. Even after the announcement of the separation, Mahi has said several times that she has full respect for her husband Rakib. Even if she holds a gun to his head, she will never say anything bad about Rakib. On the other hand, Rakib has also said that he respects Mahi as a wife. He will never say anything derogatory to his wife.

However, since the announcement of the separation, they have been giving statuses on social media, hinting at each other. This time, in an interview given to the media regarding the separation, Rakib Sarkar said, 'We started living separately from June last year. Mahi and I used to live separately in Uttara's house.'

The actress's husband also revealed why they lived separately. He said, 'Mahi got upset over an SMS from one of my family members that came to my mobile. Then she left my house for her mother's house.'

Rakib Sarkar further said, 'After Mahi left home, I tried to bring her back several times but failed. At one stage, I myself went to her mother's house with Mahi. Even the members of the two families could not convince Mahi. Once she understood, the next time it turned upside down. This is how our days of separation passed. But in the end, we failed to convince and are on the road to separation.'

Regarding the separation, Rakib said, 'The decision that has been made by Mahi is now 99 percent on the road to separation. I am optimistic about one part. I am trying to keep the family together. Because I married Mahi against the family's disapproval. Despite various obstacles, I married her out of love.'

On February 16, Mahia Mahi announced her decision to divorce her husband Rakib Sarkar in a video message on Facebook. However, she did not officially announce the separation at that time. But since then, this heroine has highlighted her loneliness and lack of trust in various posts on Facebook.

On September 13, 2021, Mahia Mahi married Gazipur businessman Rakib Sarkar. This was the second marriage for the two. They have a son named Farish. On the other hand, Rakib has two children from his first marriage, named Swaib and Sayara. Earlier, in 2016, Mahi married Sylhet businessman Parvez Mahmud Apu out of love. That marriage broke up on May 22, 2021, after five years of marriage.
