In India, marriage is considered a sacred bond. It unites two people and they vow to move forward by supporting each other in the future. However, sometimes it becomes difficult to maintain it and the husband and wife have to separate. Something similar was seen in the relationship of Hardik Pandya and Natasha Stankovic. Hardik also said that this decision was not easy for him. With this divorce, he has also lost his son. His son Agastya has gone to Serbia with mother Natasha.
