Imran Khan’s girlfriend, Lekha Washington, recently opened up about her relationship with the Happy Patel actor, addressing the criticism she has faced and reflecting on how two “broken” individuals found belief in love.
“Since I was 16, I've been called all kinds of names — growing up in Chennai and even later. Labels like 'sl*t' and 'homewrecker' are often used to diminish and control women. They don't define me, and I refuse to shrink myself to fit someone else's need to cut me down. That's where I stand today. People who use these labels don't know the reality. No one truly understands the intricacies of someone else's relationship, so how can they pass judgment? I'd much rather focus on conversations around my work. After putting out original work, if the first thing people reduce me to is my proximity to a man, that says more about them than it does about me,” Lekha told ETimes.
