In an interview with an entertainment website, Rakhi hinted at 'divorce' proceedings while speaking about Ritesh. She said that before entering the show, she was 'broken from the inside'. She continued in Hindi, "My marriage issues were going on... The divorce... My husband left me on the day of our wedding. He said he didn't want to face the media. My mother was undergoing chemotherapy."

Asked about when she'll introduce the world to Ritesh, she said, "Let me meet him first. I don't yet know how he has reacted to all that I said about him on the show. I don't want to ruin his life, he should live happily with his wife. He loved me, he loved my character. But he married me to save me from a difficult situation. He got stuck. He's a very nice man, and I love him, but we have nothing in common. Because my marriage is illegal. I can't destroy someone else's home to build my own."
In an interview with, Rakhi had spoken about the 'difficult situation' she was in. She said in Hindi, "I was stuck in a bad situation, someone was going to kidnap me at gunpoint, my mother knows about this goon. Ritesh and I were talking and he really liked me, and I was looking for someone to marry to get away from the goon."
She continued, "Ritesh agreed to marry me. I began preparations for the wedding, but he didn't show up. When he finally decided to come, a few reporters found out about our wedding, and Ritesh escaped from the back-room of the hotel where our wedding took place." On a lighter note, she joked that she'd happily stay on as Ritesh's second wife if the law allows it.
