Honey once said in an interview, "Once Javed was losing playing cards. I told Javed, bring me a card for you. Then Javed said if the card turns out well then I will marry you. Luckily the card turns out well. Javed said to Honey, let's get married. Honey was just 17 years old at the time and Javed was 10 years older than her. He did not have his own house at that time. He sought help from his friend Salim Khan and asked him to talk to Honey's mother.

Further, she said that when Salim talked to my mother, she said, "All right let them marry when Honey stumbles, she will return home." A few months later, Javed married Honey and the two started living in a room at Honey's sister's house." Both were having a good life and Javed considered Honey very lucky. But in 1970, Javed's heart fell on the daughter of Kaifi Azmi and famous actress Shabana Azmi. At that time, Shabana also fell in love with Javed but she knew that she was already married and had two children. Both could not marry, but Javed had decided to marry Shabana Azmi.
After that Shabana asked her family to get married to Javed, then the family members refused this marriage because Javed was already married but after that he got divorced and Shabana saw it and agreed to marry. When Honey came to know about Shabana and her husband's relationship, she started fighting with him every day. Javed also loved his two children very much, so he did not want to leave Honey. But Honey told him that 'he should not worry about both the children and go to Shabana'. After all this, Honey is divorced from Javed. Honey and Javed have two children, son Farhan Akhtar and daughter Zoya Akhtar who are now grown up. Javed and Honey have a birthday on the same day. From the moment we wish Javed a happy birthday.
