Fear Before the First Meeting

An Unexpected Compliment

Love That Started in School

Bhagyashree fell in love with her schoolmate, Himalaya Dasani. Despite their strong bond, her parents strongly opposed the relationship. In an interview, she shared that their love had ups and downs, but they couldn’t live without each other.

> “If you really love someone, set them free. If they return, they’re truly yours,” she quoted.

Eventually, she reunited with Himalaya and decided to marry him—no matter what.

Family Fallout and a Lonely Wedding

Understanding Her Parents’ Concerns

Looking back, Bhagyashree said she now understands her parents’ hesitation. She admitted that they were right in thinking she was too young. However, she added that things improved after the birth of her son, Abhimanyu.

Leaving Stardom for Family
