Bhagyashree says neither her family nor her husband’s attended their wedding, gets emotional: Video

Actress Bhagyashree and her husband Himalaya Dassani are part of Star Plus latest reality show Smart Jodi.

New Delhi: Actress Bhagyashree fights back tears as she remembers being disowned by her family for marrying businessman husband Himalay Dassani. The actress tied the knot with Himalay in 1990, just after making her debut opposite Salman Khan in the super hit film ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’. After marriage, Bhagyashee quit acting to focus on her family life. On the Star Plus show, ‘Smart Jodi’ the actress remembered how there was no one from her family who attended her wedding.

“Mere liye shaadi mein koi nahi tha, sivaaye inke. Jab maine mummy papa se kaha ki main shaadi karna chahti hu inse, woh nahi maane. Maa baap ke baccho ke liye sapne hote hain lekin baccho ke apne sapne bhi hote hain aur kabhi kabhi, unke sapne unhe jeene dena chaiye. Kyuki aakhir mein, unki zindagi hai, unhe jini hai. ((There was no one at my wedding except him. When I told my parents that I wanted to marry him, they did not agree to it. Parents have dreams for their children but the children also have dreams of their own. And sometimes you should let them realise their dreams. At the end of the day, it's their life that they need to live),” she told in a video shared by Star Plus on social media.

In the video, the actress can be seen holding back tears and saying, “Jo log and media kehte haina ki maine bhaag ke shaadi ki, usse bahut bahut gussa aata hai mujhe kyuki maine bhaag ke shadi nahi ki (When people and the media says that I ran away to get married, I feel so, so angry. Because I didn't)”.

Earlier in an interview she had revealed, “Yes, Himalay ji was my first love and yes, I got married to him. Lekin ek arsa tha beech mein jab hum juda ho gaye the (But there was a period of time when we were separated). And I had that feeling that ‘What if I hadn’t got him in my life and I had married someone else?’ It got me to that stage because there was a period of a year and a half that we weren’t together. Woh ehsaas abhi bhi yaad aata hai toh darr lagta hai (I still get scared when I remember that feeling)”.
