Popular television couple Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee recently shot for an episode of the show Tum Ho Naa, hosted by Rajeev Khandelwal. During the episode, Gurmeet opened up about his married life with actress Debina Bonnerjee and made a surprising revelation that he always wanted to marry a Bengali girl.
Gurmeet and Debina recalled their first meeting with host Rajeev Khandelwal, who could not help but tease Gurmeet about his initial interaction with Debina. The Kahiin To Hoga actor joked that destiny had already played its part in bringing them together.
Although Debina laughed it off, Gurmeet made a surprising confession that ever since he was a child, he wished to marry a Bengali girl. Speaking about it, he said, "Mujhe bachpan se shaadi ka bohot shauk tha. Jis ladki se pyaar karunga usi se shaadi karunga, ye humesha mere dimag mai tha. Lekin Bengali ladki se hi shaadi karunga." (I had been fond of marriage since childhood. I will marry the girl I love; this was always on my mind, but I will marry only a Bengali girl.)
Revealing the reason behind this preference, he added, "Mujhe humesha lagta tha Bengali ladkiyan bohot khoobsurat aur talented hoti hai. Bengal mai maine pehli baar dekha padhai ke saath sports aur dusri cheezo ko bhi importance diya jata hai. To mujhe laga ladki agar ghar mai aayegi to Bengali aayegi." (I always believed that Bengali girls are very beautiful and talented. In Bengal, I saw for the first time that, along with studies, sports and other things are also given importance. So I thought if a girl came into my house, she would be a Bengali.)
The actor also spoke about his struggling days and revealed how his wife Debina always believed in him even when he had absolutely nothing. He said, "Debina mujhe aise waqt pe mili jab mere paas bilkul kaam nahi tha. Lekin ye mere mai believe karti thi ki ye zarur karega." (Debina met me at a time when I had absolutely no work. But she used to believe in me that I would definitely do something.)
Tum Ho Naa Ghar Ki Superstar airs from Monday to Friday at 9 PM.
