Mohsin Khan talks about divorce with Reena Roy

"I have no regrets. I had married a human being, I didn’t see who she was or where she was from. Eventually, I decided that I wanted to stay in Pakistan. Even though I went to England to play, I wanted to stay in Pakistan," he reportedly said.

'Never watched her films before mariage'

Mohsin also revealed he did not watch any of Reena Roy's films before tying the knot with her. While speaking more about his ex-wife, he said, "I never watched any of her films before our wedding, I swear upon God, no one believes this. I don't watch, rarely do I. If I was leaving home and there was an Amitabh Bachchan scene going on, I would probably stop and watch, that too for a few minutes. But otherwise, I have never watched films. And I was never impressed by the beauty; I liked a good human being."

According to several media reports, the Nagin actress was madly in love with Mohsin, however, she found it difficult to adjust with his flamboyant lifestyle.

Reena Roy made her film debut with Zaroorat in 1972, but gained wider public recognition with her roles in Jaise Ko Taisa and Zakhmee. By 1976, she became one of the highest-paid actresses of Bollywood after starring in two of the year's biggest box-office successes, Kalicharan and Nagin.
