A crucial factor in blunting public cynicism was the absence of domestic tension. Following the Sussanne Khan divorce finalized in 2014 after 14 years of marriage, Roshan and Khan established a cordial co-parenting dynamic for their sons, Hrehaan and Hridhaan. Rather than maintaining distance, Khan publicly cheered Azad’s musical gigs, leaving warm messages under her performance clips on Instagram. Azad, in turn, attended family gatherings alongside Khan and her partner Arslan Goni.
External drama surfaced occasionally from peripheral quarters. In August 2026, Kangana Ranaut namedrops Saba Azad during a social media tirade directed at Roshan, writing on public forums: "You are committed, don't tease a woman." Rather than feeding the tabloid cycle with counter-statements or legal threats, Roshan and Azad ignored the provocation entirely. Their silence deflected the controversy, keeping attention centered on their creative work and shared home life.
