Television actors Neil Bhatt and Aishwarya Sharma, who tied the knot on November 30 in Madhya Pradesh, recently celebrated their one-month wedding anniversary. The couple, who play leads in the show Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, went to Jaisalmer, Rajasthan for the celebrations. Talking to us exclusively post the wedding, Neil Bhatt shared how life has changed post marriage and how he is looking to work on the OTT platform soon. Read on...
How does it feel being a married man?
Honestly, both Aishwarya and I feel that there have not been many changes. Since we were together only, so the transition has been really smooth. She has been living with me and my family for the last six months. After late pack up from the sets, she sometimes used to come to my house and stay with me and my family. Everything was very organic for the two of us.
How were the wedding celebrations?
I am a very simple guy who belongs to a simple family and just like a normal Gujarati guy I like keeping things to myself only. Marriage for me is very sacred. I didn't want to carry the baggage of Neil the actor getting married, rather I wanted Neil, a simple guy getting married. And so I kept the wedding celebrations really simple and I enjoyed everything thoroughly. I never intended t keep my wedding a secret but before it happened I really didn't want to talk about it. Having said that, marriage for us was a roller coaster ride as we were also shooting for a daily as leads.
Tell us about the biggest surprise at the wedding reception - Rekha!
Rekha ji had been a part of our show in the past. For the wedding, I just had to give her one call and tell her that Aishwarya and I are getting married and that it would mean the world to us if she joined us for the celebrations. It was an instant yes from her. She said that her presence will be a surprise for Aishwarya, so she asked me to not tell her anything. Rekha ji made our special night even more special.
Coming back to your professional front, you have not been a part of a reality show or a web show yet?
No, it has not been a conscious decision. Offers have come for both but sometimes I have not been in the right frame of mind to accept it. I am open to both. To appear on a show like Bigg Boss, I don't think I have the temperament for that. I have been on that show but as a guest.
Web shows have gone really bold of late, so have you drawn any line for yourself?
There are shows which are still not that bold also. Frankly speaking, I haven't had this in mind but I need to have content for a web show. Not many know but I keep writing these concepts which keep popping in my mind which I think will work best for the web. So let's see.
