What did Khan say about his separation?

Speaking with News18, the superstar gave a thoughtful answer when asked about his divorce. "[Rao] and I love each other so much. We have a lot of respect and love for one another. But people don't get [cordial relationship among ex-spouses] and I accept it." When their marital relationship "experienced a certain change," they separated out of respect for the institution of marriage.
