New Delhi: Pakistani actress Veena Malik, who has often been a newsmaker for various reasons has been granted a divorce from husband Asad Khattak. The couple was married for three years and has two kids.

According to PTI, the family court in Lahore has accepted Veena's 'khula' (divorce) application and ruled in her favour after non-pursuance of the case by Khattak. As she had filed for divorce, she will have to return 25 per cent of the 'haq mehr' (dower money) to Khattak.

According to a court official, the 33-year-old actress had filed a plea seeking divorce in the Lahore family court in first week of this January as the couple had developed differences and could not live together.

The court had summoned Khattak but he neither appeared nor filed a reply. On this, the court accepted Veena's plea and issued a decree last month validating divorce between the couple, the official said. The couple kept the development under wraps.

Veena got married to Asad on December 25, 2013 in a court in Dubai and have two children. According to some reports, Veena and Khattak had been living separately for the last three months. Veena reportedly wanted to join showbiz but Khattak had been insisting she look after their two children, Abram (2) and Amal (1).

In India, she was last seen in reality show 'Bigg Boss 4'.
