Who is Sara Abdullah?
Sara Abdullah, former wife of Sachin Pilot, is the daughter of former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and National Conference (NC) chief Farooq Abdullah. Sachin Pilot and Sara Abdullah Pilot got married in 2004. They have two sons, Aaran and Vehaan.
Sachin Pilot and Sara Abdullah first met with each other in London. While Sachin Pilot was doing his MBA in London, Sara Abdullah was sent to the UK due to tensions in Jammu and Kashmir during the 1990s. Sachin Pilot’s father Congress leader Rajesh Pilot was a close friend of Farooq Abdullah, and hence their children became friends in London. While Sachin returned home from London, Sara stayed there with her mother, maintaining a long-distance relationship with the Congress leader.
When Sara revealed about her relationship with Sachin and expressed her desire to get married, the Abdullah family rejected it. As a result, Sara Abdullah ran away from her home, getting married to Sachin Pilot in a small ceremony. The Abdullah family did not attend the wedding and publicly called the couple out for interfaith marriage. However, Sara Pilot soon fixed her relationship with her father.
It is pertinent to mention here that Sachin Pilot-Sara Abdullah divorce reason has not been revealed yet.
