Eijaz Khan's spokesperson said that the actor comes from a family where there are people from all religions. He further reiterated that the actor, who has spent more than three decades in the industry, celebrates all festivals and all religions. The spokesperson said, "His father is getting calls from his friends asking if your son has asked his girlfriend to convert to Islam. He is very hurt because he was the happiest when he came to know about Eijaz and Pavitra's relationship. Religion was never a criterion for their relationship, but somehow it is being dragged now because it is over." He further added, "Such personal claims not only affect the personal life of an actor, but he also has to face professional setbacks." The spokesperson further added that Pavitra has clarified that religion was never the reason for their separation and added, "Ejaz has visited Tirupati Balaji and Siddhivinayak temples to seek blessings during the release of his new projects, and such a claim is indicated by the fact that he did. In the interview, when Pavitra was asked if religion was a major reason for their breakup, she clearly said, 'No, absolutely not, religion was never an issue,' and she herself had said at the beginning of their relationship that she would not convert. Now only the part about conversion is being used, and the rest has been left out, the fact that he celebrated Diwali and Ganesh Chaturthi when he was living with Pavitra, all of this is having a real-time impact on the other party and one must realise its impact." What did Pavitra Punia say? In an interview, Pavitra Punia denied that religion was a major reason for her separation from Eijaz Khan and said, "Actually, my extended family was happy. Unko toh aisa lag raha ki inki toh industry aisi hai yahan jaat paat dekhte nahi hai I told him (Eijaz Khan) that I am not going to change myself.
