Javed Akhtar was questioned in an interview with Be A Man, Yaar, if he turned to alcohol as a coping mechanism for his repressed feelings.

Javed's children from his first marriage to Honey Irani are Farhan Akhtar, and Zoya Akhtar, who are also very close to Shabana. Shabana has been candid about her experience of not having children of her own in previous interviews; she handled this subject with incredible bravery and honesty.
