Archana Puran Singh’s husband Parmeet opens up about their secret wedding; says, “My parents didn’t approve of her as she was older than me”
Archana Puran Singh keeps fans updated about her personal and professional life through her YouTube videos. She recently opened up about her secret wedding with Parmeet and how his parents initially didn’t approve of her. Archana and Parmeet also recalled the struggles in their marriage and how they resolved them.
Archana recalled her father’s last words and said, “My father told him, ‘Bittu is a very fine boy, and you are a very lucky girl. Make sure you make it work with him.’ Those were his last words. My father had given his approval for him. That wasn’t the reason we got married, but I think he knew. He knew his daughter would be in good hands. So from that side, we had approval.”
However, Parmeet admitted that things were not easy at his home. He said, “From my family’s side, Archana didn’t get approval initially. The reasons were that she was older than me and she was an actress. At that time, there was a lot of taboo around actresses. There was some tension at home and a bit of back and forth with my parents.”
Archana asked, “You did try to convince them, right? What did you say?” Parmeet replied, “Twice they came to me saying, ‘There’s a proposal for you.’ I said, ‘What nonsense? I’m not going to do that. I will marry the person I love. Simple.’”
He continued, “They would say, ‘She’s a good girl,’ and all that. There was definitely tension at home.” Recalling a turning point, Parmeet said, “One night around 11 pm, I was at her house. We were standing on the terrace. I asked her, ‘Do you think you’re going to look for another boy now? Start over, build a new relationship, and then get married?’”
Archana said, “No.” Parmeet said, “I told her, ‘Even I am very happy here. I don’t want to search for anyone else. I’ve found what I was looking for.’” He added, “So when I asked her, ‘Do you want to get married?’ she said, ‘Yes, let’s get married.’” Archana clarified, “It wasn’t that quick. Usually it was more like, ‘Yes, we’ll get married someday.’” Parmeet said, “But I told her, ‘No, now.’ That was the shocker.”
Archana said, “I thought, are you serious?” They later tied the knot in a secret wedding.
