Rakul Preet Singh challenges societal norms on dressing after marriage

Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani, the newlywed couple, continue to captivate hearts with their undeniable chemistry and stylish appearances. Recently, Rakul opened up about the changes in her life post-marriage during an interview with NDTV, shedding light on their relationship dynamics and societal expectations.

With a warm smile, Rakul dismissed any noticeable changes post-marriage, expressing her delight in being addressed as "Mrs.," albeit still adjusting to the new title. She emphasized their shared perspective, stating, "It takes me a second when people call me Mrs., and I’m like, oh ok! I mean touchwood, and I really hope it remains the same in life."

Addressing societal norms and expectations, particularly regarding the dressing style of married women, Rakul emphasized the lack of pressure from both families. 

She highlighted the freedom they enjoy in their choices, mentioning that they seamlessly resumed work upon returning from their wedding festivities in Goa. She questioned the double standards in expectations, urging for a shift towards embracing individual choices and freedom, regardless of marital status.

Talking about the expectation of everyone for married women to dress a certain way, the actress said, “I think we in Indian society make a big deal about marriage, and I would like to say that it is a natural process in anyone’s life. Will you ask a guy to dress a certain way after marriage? Times have changed, and everyone does whatever they like."

For the unversed, the couple's social media posts offered glimpses into their joyous celebrations. From vibrant mehendi ceremonies to intimate wedding rituals, Rakul and Jackky's wedding festivities exuded warmth and happiness.
