‘I was too young at that time’, says former ‘Bigg Boss’ contestant Sukirti Kandpal on break-up with ex-boyfriend Manvendra Singh Shekhawat

Former Bigg Boss contestant Sukirti Kandpal recently revealed that she was once in a  serious relationship and was all set to get married. Unfortunately, the couple split after dating for many years. However, the actress continues to be good friends with her ex, who is married now.

“Yes, I was in a relationship with Manvendra Singh Shekhawat for many years and we wanted to get married, but life doesn’t end up the way you expect it to. We broke up and now, in hindsight, I feel that it was the right decision. I was too young at that time. When you are 22 or 23 years old, you don’t really know what’s right or wrong for you. Also, my career had just started then, and I was not sure if I could balance both — marriage and a career,” Sukirti Kandpal said in a statement.

She further added, “Today, Manavendra and I are good friends. I even took my father for a holiday to his home in Rajasthan. He is happy in his life and I am content, too.” Ask Sukirti if she would like to date an actor, to which she replied, “I have never dated someone who is from the industry; somehow, I have never felt romantically connected with my co-actors.”

When questioned about marriage plans, she said, “If I find someone now, I would want a long courtship period because I need to know the person well. It is important to understand each other before taking the plunge.”
