Genelia D’Souza On Her ‘Accidental’ Wedding…
In a recent conversation with Siddharth Kannan, the actress cleared the air, about the rumour of story that had sparked back in 2012 stating that a real priest had been brought on set to perform a wedding scene between the two actors — complete with rituals like mantras, garlands, the mangalsutra, and even the seven pheras — supposedly resulting in a legal marriage.
Reacting to it all, Genelia said, “There was no truth to it. We didn’t get married. These stories were spread by PR, and I think you should ask them why they did it.”
Genelia took a 10-year break from acting after her marriage with Riteish Deshmukh.
During a conversation with Zoom, Genelia said, “Most people ask me if it’s easy to step away from the limelight for 10 years and I said, ‘It’s what I wanted to do, so I did it.’ I saw a place after 10 years and I am happy in that place. I may not do 10 films, I may do three films, but my happiness is with that and that’s what matters the most.”
