In an interview with mid-day, Ali Abbas shared, "She is from France, so the visas were initially posing a problem. As soon as she got the visa, we went to Dehradun and got married at home. It was always planned this way."

He further added, "She is a first-generation Iranian from France. I had gone there for work, and immediately fell in love with her. I pursued her for almost two years, convincing her that I am the man who will keep her happy. It has been a difficult task, but I am glad she finally agreed."

Sharing his further plans, Ali Abbas Zafar also mentioned, I plan to start shooting in Mumbai soon, and have back-to-back shoots lined up all year. It is one of the reasons we got married now. Also, since Europe went into a second lockdown, we had no idea whether we would get another clear window soon. So, we decided to make the most of this period."

On the work front, Zafar is gearing up for the web series, Taandav, starring Saif Ali Khan, Kritika Kamra, Sunil Grover, Kumud Mishra, Mohd. Zeeshan Ayyub, and Dimple Kapadia. It's all set to stream on Amazon Prime Video India from January 15. He also has a Superhero film coming up with Katrina Kaif.
