In a candid and heartfelt appearance on the online chat show DigiTales, celebrated Pakistani actress Marina Khan opened up about her and her husband Jalil Akhtar's decision to not have children. Marina talked about her married life with Jalil, who is also a renowned producer, and the mutual choices that have shaped their enduring relationship.

During the interview, the Dhoop Kinare star affectionately referring to her husband as "Kuchu," revealed that their decision to remain child-free was not premeditated but evolved naturally over time. “So Kuchu and I, we never said that we were never going to have kids,” she said. Reflecting on their early experiences with their nephews and nieces, she added, “When his brothers had kids, we loved them, we played with them, and then we’d just hand them back and we’d come home and say, 'Nah, that’s too much.’rdblquote

Marina expressed that their decision not to have children has afforded them a unique freedom and deepened their bond. “I feel very comfortable being with him and that has enabled us to go wherever we want to together because obviously, we don’t have a child to tend to,” she said.
