The "Koti Takar Kabin" actress further accused Shakib of pressuring her to keep their marriage under wraps. He argued that the revelation about their nuptials would negatively affect his careers. For the sake of his sucessful career, the star agreed to his then-husband request.

Apu was surprised by the divorce letter but did not contest it. She, however, was not at all willing to give up her child. She claimed that his accusations of her being a bad mother are false. She said that she went to India for a medical visit, and taking a newborn on a medical trip was not appropriate.

The divorce was finalized on February 28, 2018, after three trials, and the couple settled on the mother having the full physical custody of their son. Shakib, however, gained the permission of visit.

The family court ordered Shakib to give the dower (Sen Mahr) to Apu Biswas as well as provide a means of support for her. Since he was already giving one lakh taka per month ($1177.16) to Apu for their son Abraham, so the court did not order any additional child support payments.
