Key facts
- Sussanne Khan denies receiving Rs 400 crore alimony from Hrithik Roshan
- Rejects the 'gold-digger' label publicly
- Hrithik and Sussanne divorced after over a decade of marriage
Sussanne Khan has categorically denied reports that she walked away with Rs 400 crore in alimony from her divorce with Hrithik Roshan, calling the narrative false and rejecting the label of 'gold-digger' that she says has been unfairly applied to her.
The former couple, who were married for over a decade before separating, have remained publicly civil — but the financial speculation surrounding their divorce settlement has persisted in gossip circles for years. Sussanne's decision to address it directly is a notable departure from the studied silence both have largely maintained on the matter.
Her rebuttal carries weight not just as a personal clarification but as a commentary on how women in the public eye are often reduced to financial caricatures when high-profile marriages dissolve. The Rs 400 crore figure, which she denies, had become part of Bollywood folklore despite never being officially confirmed.
The statement is likely to reignite public interest in the divorce's actual terms, though Sussanne has not elaborated on what settlement, if any, was reached. For now, she has drawn a firm line against a narrative she considers both inaccurate and insulting.
