Rumors that Dhallywood superstar Shakib Khan and actress Shobnom Bubly were reuniting have recently been fueled by their public appearance together in New York. The news came after Bubly traveled to New York to spend time with their son, Shehzad Khan Bir, at Shakib’s request.
Photos obtained by the newspaper Kaler Kantho, and later shared by Bubly on her social media, show the family enjoying a day out at Roosevelt Island. They were seen getting out of a black car, with Shakib holding their son’s hand as Bubly walked behind them. This outing has led many to speculate that the two, who had previously stated their relationship was a thing of the past, might be reconciling.
This trip echoes a previous one Shakib took two years ago with his older son, Abraham Khan Joy (with actress Apu Biswas), where he visited various cities including New York and Niagara Falls. At the time, Shakib expressed his desire to create beautiful memories for both of his sons. Now, he’s fulfilling that promise to Shehzad Khan Bir. Shakib is expected to return to Bangladesh later this month.
Apu Biswas’s Response
Following the news and Bubly’s social media posts, actress Apu Biswas made a post of her own. In it, she said that Shakib, their son Joy, and herself are a family and their connection will remain. She also said that some people only want attention and that she doesn’t want to talk about them. Many are speculating that Apu’s words were a direct response to the pictures of Shakib and Bubly.
The recent news of Shakib Khan, Shobnom Bubly, and their son being together in New York has once again brought to the forefront the long-running controversy involving the three. The conflict between actresses Apu Biswas and Bubly, centered around their relationships with Shakib Khan, has often played out in the media and on social media.
For years, Apu and Bubly have been involved in a “virtual war” with each other, frequently posting thinly veiled criticisms and competing for attention regarding their children and their relationship with Shakib. These posts often lead to heated discussions and arguments among their fans online.
Some notable controversies include:
The “Diamond Nose Ring” incident: A few years ago, Bubly shared a photo of a diamond nose ring, claiming Shakib had gifted it to her. Apu responded with laughing emojis on a news post about the gift, sparking a public exchange of cryptic posts between the two. Shakib later stated he had not bought the nose ring and was confused by Bubly’s post.
Competing social media posts: Apu and Bubly have often engaged in a public competition to showcase their sons’ relationships with Shakib. They have both shared private photos and videos of their respective sons, Abraham Khan Joy and Shehzad Khan Bir, spending time with their father, often with captions that appear to be aimed at one another.
Public statements and interviews: Both actresses have made public statements about their past and present relationships with Shakib. While Shakib has repeatedly said that both are in his past, Apu and Bubly have at times claimed to still be married to him. Bubly’s sister has also been known to get involved, publicly criticizing Apu Biswas on social media.
These ongoing tensions have at times frustrated Shakib Khan, who has expressed his annoyance with the public feuding. He has stated that these unnecessary controversies negatively impact his career and that he wants his past to remain in the past.
