ControversyLegal Dispute with Sahil Khan
In 2009, she made headlines for her rumoured relationship with the Indian fitness entrepreneur Sahil Khan. Initially, Sahil who is 17 years younger than Ayesha denied the rumours of his relationship with her, but when the dispute between the two turned into a legal fight, then Sahil accepted that he was in a relationship with Ayesha. Sahil said that she was asking him to return the gifts which she had gifted him. In November 2014, Ayesha filed a cheating case against Sahil for not returning her Rs 8 crore which Sahil had taken from her. Along with a cheating case, she filed a defamation case against him for lieing about their relationship in the media. In February 2015, Sahil Khan’s lawyer submitted some intimate photos of Sahil and Ayesha as proof of their love affair in a court. In front of the judges, Sahil said that Ayesha even asked him to quit his job of Rs 60,000 salary, but when her son did a hit film, she dumped Sahil. Sahil’s lawyer said,

"Sahil did not give back the gifts, which Ayesha had asked him to buy with the money given by her for an expensive car for her husband, an expensive watch and a pair of diamond earrings. If she is saying that theirs was a business relationship, why did she ask Sahil to buy all this for her?”

In defence, Ayesha claimed that Sahil was gay, and he could not have an intimate relationship with a woman. Ayesha’s lawyer said,

"The court should not entertain the photographs as they do not concern the matter at hand. Also, if you (the defence) are showing such photos, we need the source as they could be morphed. We need Sahil’s custody so that we can investigate the cheating, the gifts that he has not given back and about the phone from which the pictures were taken.”

However, in March 2015, the case was settled between both parties. Sahil apologised to Ayesha in court, and Ayesha withdrew her case against Sahil. In 2018, there were rumours that Ayesha Shroff had sourced the call record details of Sahil Khan. [5]Koimoi According to a leading newspaper,

"The two were involved in a dispute and she allegedly sourced the CDR of the actor, and handed it to her counsel Rizwan Siddiqui.”
