Marriage might not be frowned upon, however it is
often not welcome in showbiz. There is the common perception that actresses
won’t be able to devote as much time, as earlier, to work, once they get
married. However actor Suhani Dhanki disagrees. “I think marriage isn't a speed
breaker in your life or an obstacle. I think marriage is more about
companionship, so if you find the right kind of companion, it shouldn't form like
a break in your life. I am lucky to have a partner who thinks the same way as I
do, we both are very focused in terms of our careers. We knew if we got married
we always would have a lot on our plate; our ambitions and aspirations and we
never wanted to put a halt on that. I don't know what other actresses do but I
think there is a time and age where you feel you are prepared to settle down
and I think I am fortunate that I have found a family that doesn't expect me to
change at all. They are allowing me to do everything I want,” she says.
The actor adds, “In fact, when I signed Porus, my
wedding was getting fixed and I told Swastik Productions about it and they were
okay with managing my dates. I don't really think that an actress getting
married is really an issue anymore in the industry what matters is the work.
Everyone is more interested in an artist's work, than what they are doing in
their personal life. Also the fact that I am playing the love interest of
Laksh, isn’t really a big deal. In the end, we are actors and we are all
playing characters.”
“I am getting married on 3rd
December and my fiance's name is Prathamesh Modi. He is basically from Mumbai
and later he moved to London to study and is still staying there for
professional commitments. He is a jeweller and financial consultant in London,”
she says.
Suhani adds that the two met through their
families. “We met in an arranged marriage setup through our mutual connections.
We started talking as friends. I started talking to him because I had questions
about London so I started talking to him and we've known each other for 2
years. It's been a quite a journey as my father wasn't happy about the idea of
me moving to London, so it took very long to convince him but it is a love
marriage of course,” she says.
Of course, dressing up for the wedding is
exciting. “I am super excited to dress up for my wedding day I know we as
actors keep trying out different attires. For my wedding, I have put in a lot
of effort in putting together my outfit from the colour, to the embroidery,
everything. Moreover, I decided for my wedding that my outfit would be made by
the person who has been making my dresses since childhood that is my mother and
Sunanda Shah. So they have actually put my wedding outfit together and for my
reception, I am going to be wearing a Natasha Dalal outfit,” she says.
While some people are keen on getting married to
someone from the same profession, Suhani says that to her these things never
mattered. “Actually if you are an actor shooting or you work in a corporate
sector, the hours of working vary everywhere. It doesn't matter whether you
marry someone from the industry or out, at the end what matters is who you
marry,” she says.
