Marriage might not be frowned upon, however, it is often not welcomed in showbiz. There is a common perception that actresses won't be able to devote as much time, as earlier, to work, once they get married. However actor Suhani Dhanki disagrees. "I think marriage isn't a speed breaker in your life or an obstacle. I think marriage is more about companionship, so if you find the right kind of companion, it shouldn't form like a break in your life. I am lucky to have a partner who thinks the same way as I do, we both are very focused in terms of our careers. We knew if we got married, we always would have a lot on our plate; our ambitions and aspirations and we never wanted to put a halt on that. I don't know what other actresses do but I think there is a time and age where you feel you are prepared to settle down and I think I am fortunate that I have found a family that doesn't expect me to change at all. They are allowing me to do everything I want," she says.

The actor adds, "In fact, when I signed Porus, my wedding was getting fixed and I told Swastik Productions about it and they were okay with managing my dates. I don't really think that an actress getting married is really an issue anymore in the industry, but what matters is the work. Everyone is more interested in an artist's work, than what they are doing in their personal life. Also the fact that I am playing the love interest of Laksh, isn't really a big deal. In the end, we are actors and we are all playing characters."

"I got married on December 3rd and my fiance's name is Prathamesh Modi. He is basically from Mumbai and later he moved to London to study and is still staying there for professional commitments. He is a jeweller and financial consultant in London," she says.

Suhani adds that the two met through their families. "We met in an arranged marriage setup through our mutual connections. We started off as friends and began communicating. Since I was curious about London, I started questioning him about the place and since then there is no looking back. We've known each other for two years. It's been quite a journey as my father wasn't happy about the idea of me moving to London, so it took very long to convince him but it is a love marriage of course," she says.

Of course, dressing up for the wedding was exciting. "I was super excited to dress up for my wedding day and being an actor, we keep trying out different attires. For my wedding, I had put in a lot of efforts in putting together my outfit from the colour, to the embroidery, and everything. Moreover, I decided for my wedding that my outfit would be made by the person who has been making my dresses since childhood that is my mother and Sunanda Shah. So they actually put my wedding outfit together and for my reception, I wore a Natasha Dalal outfit," she says.

While some people are keen on getting married to someone from the same profession, Suhani says that to her these things never mattered. "Actually if you are an actor shooting or you work in a corporate sector, the hours of working vary everywhere. It doesn't matter whether you marry someone from the industry or not, at the end what matters is who you marry," she says.

He is always quiet critical about his daughter.

Either he is very honest or he doesnt want to seem like he is favoring his daughter.

In any case i think both look like they will rock the movie. Good luck
